Throughout the world, there are a myriad of beautiful creatures, each with their own interesting habitats and niches. However, with climate changes, pollution, and other contributing factors, the number of endangered species is augmenting at a rate we can hardly keep up with. While few of us are actually environmentalists making a difference in the lives of these creatures, I'm hoping that the rest of you (myself included) will think twice about littering, emitting excess amounts of gas, and a multitude of other impacts we have on the environment after seeing these adorable pictures.
