7:36 “Less then 10, 000 remain in the wild” the lemur then looks up and drops its jaw, like it was thinking WTF!

We need animals way more than animals need us

It's truly sad to see the amount of damage human actions have inflicted on the world's environments and everything that lives in it.

I’m writing a research paper on endangered animals so this is helpful ♥️

I remember when I was about six years old and I loved to visit the Okapi pen at the zoo. Now that I know about them becoming rare really breaks my heart.

As someone who grew up watching Zaboomafoo, I find it hard to believe that anyone would hunt a sifaka. Though then again, growing up with the Kratts makes it hard to believe anyone would want to poach any animal.

Also, 5:30, it's drowzee!

I was in London Zoo 2 years ago, and I saw an okapi for the first time. I literally fell in love with it *-*

[targetforallmobs]

what about the white rhino, their is only 2 left in the world

[iminyomomsbed]

crazy how every animal's biggest threat is humans and not predators

[iheartnessa]

I did a report the okapi before and they are really interesting in my opinion

[binosjourney]

FYI: Babi means Pig, and Rusa means Deer so it's literally means Pig Deer

this just reminded me of watching zaboomafoo as a kid. 🙂

The clip of the tapir eating the whole time with the very comical and whacky music was very funny 😂
