Study Notes
Endangered Animals
- Many animals are endangered, meaning their populations are very low.
- Examples include whales, pandas, tigers, and Asian elephants.
Habitat Loss
- Human population growth leads to habitat destruction.
- Humans need more land for homes and infrastructure (roads, buildings).
- Forests, lakes, and plains are destroyed as a result.
- This deprives animals of their living space, leading to extinction.
Iranian Cheetah
- The Iranian cheetah is a critically endangered species.
- It is found exclusively in Iranian plains.
- The population is very small.
- Conservation efforts are crucial for its survival.
Conservation Efforts
- Increased awareness and concern about nature among families.
- Educational initiatives about wildlife conservation in schools.
- Reduced hunting activity.
- These factors contribute to a potential increase in cheetah numbers in the future.
