RHN SURVEY
Revealing the shocking truth behind climate change and endangered animals
The Amur Leopard
The Amur leopard lives in the eastern regions of Russia. Only as many as 35 live in the wild, but it is estimated that if there were as little as 100 it could save this species from the verge of extinction. Due to hunting and destruction of habitat this amazing Big Cat is classified critically endangered. If we do not act soon they will simply become extinct and will completely fade from the face of the planet.

Tigers
Tigers live in all parts of the world ranging from the Siberian (the largest) to the Sumatran tiger (the smallest).
But due to the thriving trade in their bones, skin and organs they have been classified as critically endangered. Over the last 100 years, tigers have dropped in numbers by 97 percent, from 100 000 to just 3000. The Malayan, Sumatran and Siberian tiger are only in the hundreds.

Snow Leopards
The endangered Snow Leopard lives on the mountain ranges of Central and Southern Asia. Snow Leopards are rare and secretive living in a remote environment. They can live up to 15 years. A constant threat of poaching for their fur and a food shortage had deserved their place on the endangered animals list. A lack of food has forced a conflict with humans. The Snow Leopard eats a diet of mostly meat, a bit of a pain if there isn't any, so its forced to go to lower lands to feed on livestock (mostly goats). RHN are certain that if we do not help these fascinating animals they will be wiped out completely.

Florida Panther
The Florida Panther is one of the rarest big cats around the world. Its relatives (well virtually identical twin) the puma is forced to breed with it, this causes impure breeding. Motorists breaking the speed limit in huge "gas guzzlers" just strike the Florida Panther, whilst crossing the road, without realising. This problem took 14 florida panthers lives in 2007 . As there are only an estimate of 70-90 of the panthers left it is in critical condition and with people shooting them (mistaking them for a normal puma) their chance of survival is slim. If we act now we CAN save them.
