Endangered & Extinct Species
Mission : Endangered
1999
We designed our site to teach people more about endangered species. We organized our information into four categories: Land Animals, Plants, Birds, and Sea mammals. We wanted everyone to realize that all kinds of living things are endangered. We have information about 11 different endangered species, including the reasons why they are endangered. We included a locator map so that you can see the area of the world each animal is found. We created a scrambled word game and a picture puzzle game, and used a Java Script template from the Internet to make it interactive online. we also included links to some resources people can use to find out more about our endangered species and about how we can all help them. We also want to hear from people about how they are involved in helping and the things they do at their schools. to do this we included a message box. We want to post some of the school projects on our site to help other people get ideas of things to do. We hope that by learning more about endangered species people will be aware of the things that we do that can harm plants and animals, and will be more careful about the things they do. Once endangered species are gone, they are gone forever. We rely on any of these plants and animals, and some we may not even know about. We can't bring them back if we don't start now. We hope that by learning more everyone will get involved.
