Unit 6: Animals!!!

People love animals. But some world's animals are in danger of extinction. There are serveral reasons for this. But the most serious threat to animals is from man.
In some parts of the world people collect hino horn for use in medicine. Shark's fin soup, chimpanzee and whale meat are popular with some people too.
Another big problem is the destruction of the rainforest. The Worldwide Fund for Nature is an international organization. It looks at all aspects of conservation including animals, plants, forestry and control of pollution.
There are a number of projects in Britain wich deal with endangered species.
