Abstract

It is claimed that Earth is currently in the midst of its sixth mass extinction Briggs, Ceballos et al. & Laurance et al. [1-3], to date the IUCN Red List classifies 25,062 species of vertebrates, invertebrates, plants, fungi and protists as being threatened, with classicisation’s ranging from near threatened to extinct in the wild IUCN Red List, Hoffman et al. [4,5] It is estimated that current extinction rates are 100 – 1000 times higher their pre-human background rates [6,7] but exact figures are often frequently disputed [8,9]. However, there is great effort to try to reduce and mitigate this rate of extinction by saving at risk species and habitats through wildlife conservation.
