Be that as it may, each of these species is unique, and its preservation on our planet is very important for the natural balance.
Unfortunately, it is man who is the main cause of the extinction of many animals. Okapi and quokka, lori and dugong, kakapo and palm thief — these and other animal species are on the verge of extinction and may soon disappear forever. Let's be kinder to nature and those with whom we share our home!

Golden snub - nosed monkeys

Kakapo
Dugong
Currently, fishing for dugongs with nets is prohibited and they are extracted with harpoons from boats. Mining is allowed as a traditional trade of aboriginal peoples. The dugong is listed in The Red Book of the International Union for Conservation of Nature with the status of "vulnerable species".
Lori (Loris elusive)
Ornamental bird - eater
Markhur (screw-horned goat)
Quokka (short-tailed kangaroo)
Okapi
Although okapi was discovered several centuries ago, few people still believe that this strange creature can be real. Today you can find them only in the Democratic Republic of the Congo, where there are about 10-20 thousand of them left.
