Do you know ... Conditions of Endangered Species? How many pandas are left in the world?

Humans and Endangered Species Our Earth supports lots of different plant and animal species. With more and more humans changing the environment, other species become extinct faster than they have in the past. In fact, plant and animal species are disappearing at least 1,000 times faster than at any other time in the last 65 million years. As humans take up more and more space on the planet, we destroy the habitats of other animals and plants. This is the biggest reason why animals are becoming extinct today.
