Endangered Species Lists

Here are the links of the 2 important websites that i feel has importantance in preservation of fauna. The most interesting parts of the websites would be to actually look at the pictures of the different species.


http://www.cites.org/ (This is where you get the CITES Listings. Go to the photo gallery link on the right and you'll end up with an index with all the different species that are on the list. My favorite picture is the one below.)


http://www.iucnredlist.org/ (This is the link for the IUCN Red List. Click on Photo Gallery on the menu and you'll be able to access photos from the lists of previous years as well.)
