Showing 13 of 13 species
Loxodonta africana
Endangered since the 2021 reassessment; poaching and habitat loss remain the central threats.
Phoenicopterus ruber
Least Concern overall, but local populations are sensitive to coastal development and disturbance.
Vulpes lagopus
Least Concern globally, but the Fennoscandian subpopulation is critically endangered and squeezed by the warming-driven advance of the red fox.
In our stories
Tyto alba
Stable where nest-box schemes and farmland margins are maintained by local volunteers.
Carcharhinus leucas
Pressured by overfishing and coastal habitat loss; dive tourism is building the case for its protection.
Chelonia mydas
Nesting beaches protected by community patrols are a bright spot for a globally endangered species.
Eretmochelys imbricata
Critically endangered, long hunted for its shell; coral-reef decline compounds the threat.
Megaptera novaeangliae
A landmark recovery after the end of commercial whaling, though some subpopulations remain at risk.
Panthera leo
Vulnerable and declining across much of its range through habitat loss and conflict with people.
Gorilla beringei beringei
One of conservation's rare upturns — numbers are slowly rising thanks to protection and ecotourism.
Columba livia
Abundant in cities worldwide — the feral form descends from one of the first birds humans domesticated.
Balaeniceps rex
Threatened by wetland degradation, disturbance at nesting sites, and the live-bird trade.
Treron phoenicopterus
A fruit-tree bird of gardens and groves, sensitive to the loss of tall native trees and the pressure of urban growth.
These are only the species our own stories follow.
