Scientists are worried that humanity is nearing another mass extinction, and humans are responsible for it.
A total of 21 previously endangered species have gone extinct, US Wildlife officials said. The agency said Americans lost an opportunity to preserve critical animal species that put our climate actions in question.
At least 45% of the world’s known flowering plants are threatened by extinction around the world, the study revealed.
After seven decades of extinction, the wild African cheetahs are back in India. The Indian government brought eight cheetahs last year to populate the endangered species in the country. The animal was declared extinct in 1952 after it vanished from the country in 1947.
More than a third of the species in the United States are at risk of extinction according to a latest research study. The research group found that around 40% of animals and 34 % of plants and 41% of ecosystem are under extinction risk.
Asteroids are normal as our earth moves around in space. The moment an asteroid comes in contact with earth’s atmosphere, it tends to melt away, due to friction. But NASA has claimed to have detected an asteroid heading towards earth on Christmas day. As you read, an asteroid is advancing towards earth with the speed of 25,028 km/h.
