Until the day, what has presented humans with the hefty looks of mammoths with giant tuskers, mega canines of dinosaurs, and spindly Tasmanian tigers parading their choppers is VFX!

But you can’t touch these creatures in the face, not only because they are rather gnarly to speak to; they have long made a permanent exit from our world. All thanks to human actions like hunting and habitat loss due to climate change, many of these animals are featured on the endangered species list.

Now here’s the good news! Some animals that did not appear anywhere for a considerable period and were ultimately declared extinct have resurfaced.

Those survivors likely faced many atrocities from human beings in the form of poaching, leisure hunting, climate change, natural predation, extensive habitat loss, and more. Sadly this has not stopped yet, as there are still many faunal species that are on the verge of dying out.

Some vulnerable species are fortunate enough to get timely attention to prevent them from disappearing altogether. While many others remain out of sight until it is too late to realize. Breeding programs at nature preserves have helped many endangered animals to make a comeback from the endangered list and thrive in their natural habitat.

Read on to learn more about the importance of the breeding program and federal protection in helping animals and birds on the endangered list to be safe.
