ENDANGERED ANIMALS

MEXICAN WOLF DATA

• COMMON NAME: Mexican Wolf
• SCIENTIFIC NAME: Canis lupus baileyi
• TYPE: Mammal
• DIET: Carnivore
• IUCN RED LIST STATUS: Threatened
• CURRENT POPULATION TREND: Decreasing

MEXICAN WOLF

The Mexican wolf is one of the five subspecies of gray wolf that inhabit North America. It is also the smallest of the subspecies. The Mexican wolf is a species similar in shape and size to a medium-sized dog; his body is slim and solidly built; its head is narrow, and with a long and angular skull, it has large, straight ears, with a rounded tip. The tail is covered by dense hair and is longer than the body.Wolves are born blind and deaf after a gestation period of approximately sixty-five days, usually born at night. Cubs are born with a round head and proportionally larger with respect to the body, which makes them appear flat; They have small ears and pale corners of their lips and eat desert rats.

Scientific Name of The Mexican Wolf

• (Canis lupus baileyi)

Geographical location of the Mexican wolf

Historically, Mexican gray wolves were found throughout southwestern Texas, southern New Mexico, southeastern Arizona, and as far south as central Mexico. Today the reintroduction of wolves is limited to the Gila ecosystem in eastern Arizona and western New Mexico and the Sierra de San Luis in northern Mexico.

3 Interesting Factors of the Mexican Wolf

1. Wolves usually have 9 pups (average) per litter
2. It is the smallest subspecies of wolf in North America
3. The greatest threats to the Mexican Wolf is indiscriminate hunting and the loss of its natural habitat

Possible Solutions to avoid the extinction of the Mexican wolf

Avoid buying furniture made with exotic woods such as cedar or mahogany, since the Jungles and Forests of Mexico and other South American countries are being destroyed to obtain precious woods and in turn are destroying the natural habitat of many animals including the of the Mexican Wolf.

Giant anteater DATA

• COMMON NAME:Giant anteater
• CLASS: Mammalia
• Order: Pilosa
• DIET: Carnivore
• Habitat: bed sheet
• Feeding: Insectivorous

GIANT ANTEATER

They are commonly known as anteaters, palm bears, tamanduas or yurumíes, they are a suborder of placental mammals of the order Pilosa. They are native to Central America and North and Central South America;To find their prey, these animals are not guided by sight - which in their case is scarce - but by smell.Although anteaters are not aggressive, they can be very violent. A cornered specimen will stand up on its hind legs, using its tail for balance, and lash out at its attacker with its dangerous claws.

Scientific Name of The Giant Anteater

• Myrmecophaga tridactyla

Geographical Location of the Giant Anteater

Anteaters are distributed throughout Central and South America, preferably in rainforests and grasslands. There are four different species, with large differences in size between them.

3 Interesting Factors of the Giant Anteater

1. Its mouth does not have teeth, like the rest of the placental mammals, but a long sticky tongue, with which they extract the ants and termites from trees and caves.
2. Anteaters could teach humans ecology classes.
3. Anteaters have two very sagacious predators: the cougar and the jaguar.

Possible Solutions to avoid the extinction of the Giant Anteater

Olfactory repellents ”, strategic odors that attract animals to a certain place or move them away from the road; as well as the modification of the habitat, regularly pruning the plants that are found on the sides of the road, which would allow visibility to drivers.

andean bear DATA

• COMMON NAME:ANDEAN BEAR
• KINGDOM: ANIMALIA
• CLASS: MAMMALIA
• DIET: Carnivore
• FAMILY: URSIDAE
• SPECIES: T. Ornatus

ANDEAN BEAR

It is a species of mammal of the family Ursidae. 2 It is the only living species of its genus. The muzzle is short, light brown or white in color, with whitish spots that extend around the eyes and nose through the cheeks, down the neck to the chest, and which varies greatly between individuals. It has five toes with long claws and non-retractable curves, and the soles of the legs have interdigital hairs that help it climb trees.

Scientific Name of The ANDEAN BEAR

• Tremarctos ornatus

Geographical Location of the Andean Bear

The Andean bear is the only bear in South America and is endemic to the tropical Andes. Andean bears live along the Andes mountain range, from Venezuela to southern Bolivia, and are both terrestrial

3 Interesting Factors of the Andean Bear

1. This bear is a mammal that needs large areas to feed and find a mate.
2. Adult males and females have a short, muscular neck, short ears, and dark brown muzzle.
3. The size, coloration and shape of these spots are usually different in each individual and are usually used for their identification at this level.

Possible Solutions to avoid the extinction of the Andean Bear

• Environmental education campaigns to the community of the sector and its surroundings.
• Parallel work of clean production and conversion of extensive livestock to silvopastoral processes. That allow sustainable soil management
