Each one of these beautiful species is facing threats of becoming endangered. There is a lot we can still do to help save endangered species and save their habitats.  "I speak for the trees, for the trees have no tongues" Dr. Seuss. Forest areas cover about a third of our planet but they are reducing rapidly around the world.  The IUCN determined that 12% of our world’s bird species are endangered and in threat of being extinct. Additional 8% are in near threat status. Therefore 1 of every 5 birds could be extinct during the next 50-80 years, that is about 2,000 different bird species!  The California Condors are the largest flying birds in North America, with wings spanning to an amazing size of nine and half feet! The California Condors are classified as Critically Endangered (CR) by the IUCN Red List. Sadly, this species numbers declined drastically up to the point that in 1982 there were fewer than 25 condors left in the wild. Drastic measures were taken in order to save this species from extinction. 
Although the monarch butterfly is not considered to be globally threatened, the North American migration is recognized by the IUCN to be an endangered biological phenomenon. The flight of the butterflies is the longest known distance insect migration on Earth – and it’s been occurring for thousands of years.  Lets Join the effort of the campaign to stop the tradition of dolphin slaughter in Taiji, Japan. This petition will be sent to: Mayor of Taiji, Prime Minister of Japan, Japanese Minister of Fisheries, Emperor of Japan. Calling to stop the slaughter of 20,000 dolphins, porpoises, and small whales which occurs in Japan each year.  Poaching is one of the major threats for survival of endangered species.
