Today, on Endangered Species Day, we unite in a collective effort for conservation. Every third Friday in May, we pay close attention to animals and plants. The Endangered Species Coalition founded the event in 2006 intending to actively work for the survival of endangered species. Currently, there are over 44,000 species threatened with extinction. Among the world"s most endangered animals are the Javan and black rhinos, the mountain gorillas and the Hawksbill turtles.
