Popis: Each year, an area of rainforest habitat estimated to be greater than the size of the state of New York is lost to human intervention. At this rate of rainforest and other ecosystem loss, some authorities believe that between 1 and 5 million species of animals and plants could become extinct in the next two decades. There are hundreds of species of known plants and animals on the Appendix 1 list of the Convention on International Trade in Endangered Species (CITES) at this time.
