Description: Over the past few centuries, human activity has pushed hundreds, if not thousands, of species to extinction, and we have endangered thousands more. This book looks at how hunting, overfishing, habitat destructio, climate change and other factors have threatened many of the plants and animals of this planet, and examines what we can do to reverse this trend.
