Endangered Species Calendar

Endangered Species Calendar Overview

The Endangered Species calendar is a thought-provoking and insightful calendar highlighting some of the rarest and most vulnerable creatures which share our world. Inset photos and explanatory notes show each animal in its natural habitat and informative notes about its characteristics, behaviour and the challenges it faces to survive add to the appeal of this engaging calendar.

For example, there’s an image of the Sri Lankan Elephant, the largest and the darkest of the Asian elephant subspecies, with patches of depigmentation (areas with no skin colour) on its ears, face, trunk and belly. Once found throughout Sri Lanka, these elephants are now being pushed into smaller areas. They are classified as endangered as the large blocks of forest they require are being cleared for human development and agriculture, disrupting their migratory routes. The Florida Panther is the most endangered cat in North America, with only a tiny population left, so low genetic diversity is a concern, also habitat loss from construction and dangers from roads.
