Animal of the Day!

Grevy’s Zebra (Equus grevyi)

(Photo from Mandai Wildlife Group)

Conservation Status- Endangered

Habitat- Northern Kenya; Southeast Ethiopia

Size (Weight/Length)- 450 kg; 2.5 m

Diet- Grasses; Fruits; Leaves; Bark; Beans

Cool Facts- With a more mule-like appearance than their horse-like cousins, the Grevy’s zebra is the world’s rarest zebra. Mares gather in small herds led by a head stallion, wandering their arid home. These herds are non-territorial and travel between stallion territories. The lead stallion often travels with the mares for his own protection and usually submits to any territorial stallion they encounter. Grevy’s zebra mate year round and mares produce a single foal. Foals imprint on their mom by memorizing her fingerprint-like stripes. Male zebras are very friendly towards foals and gather them into small groups while their moms are off drinking or eating. Males will even take care of non-related foals with the hope his willingness to help out will convince the mother to mate with him the following year.

Rating- 11/10 (Threatened by drought and poaching but slowly recovering.)

A Grevy’s zebra, the worlds rarest species that only exists in the northern part of Kenya, and Ethiopia, looks on, amid a drought in Samburu National Reserve, Samburu county, Kenya. The intense drought in the region has brought a high number of casualties among the Grevy’s zebras as the local NGO Grevys Zebra Trust reports 58 deaths out of a population of about 2,800 in Kenya since June

Grevy's Zebra

Oh boy I've been working on catching up lately {we ignore the fact that I'm still 6 days behind and about to get two days further behind due to Thorpe Park Things <3} Here's Electrick Circus, a battered clown who's nowhere near as easy on the eyes as they think they are. With White stripes, vibriant mane and a positively electric energy, they're ready to give you the show of a lifetime with whatever they can rummage from their pockets. Could be a string of hankies, a lightbulb, readily fueled chainsaw, how about a severed limb or a beating heart? Okay maybe not the dismembered parts, but they're still eager to impress!

Just like last year it's Offer to Adopt. Valid offers can be art, designs, and/or Money {min £10/usd equivalent} so may the best win!

THE LINEUP

Day 1 - The London Dungeon Day 2 - Magma Day 3 - Coven of 13 Day 4 - Orion Day 5 - Vampire Day 6 - Below Day 7 - Curse at Alton Manor Day 8 - Wolf Legend Day 9 - Depths of Darkness Day 10 - Octonauts Rollercoaster Adventure Day 11 - Electrick Circus Day 12 - Mandrill Mayhem Day 13 - Survival Games Day 14 - Mystic Timbers

Grevy's Zebra (Equus grevyi) is still statused as Endangered on the IUCN Red List and is the most threatened of the three zebra species; it's also the largest living wild equid.

The United States Congress created Endangered Species Day in 2006 with the adoption of Senate Resolution 431. The resolution encouraged "the people of the United States to become educated about, and aware of, threats to species, success stories in species recovery, and the opportunity to promote species conservation worldwide." It also encouraged schools to spend at least 30 minutes teaching students about the day; encouraged groups such as businesses, organizations, private landowners and agencies to collaborate on educational information for the schools; and encouraged people of the United States "to observe the day with appropriate ceremonies and activities." In short, the day is for learning why it's important to protect endangered species, for learning how to take part in protection efforts, and for celebrating species that have recovered as a result of these efforts.

Each year, events are held on the day and throughout the month in places such as zoos, parks, aquariums, museums, wildlife refuges, schools, and botanical gardens. There are often speakers, tours, exhibits, and children's activities. Every year, there is also a National Endangered Species Day Youth Art Contest, where students in grades K-12 learn about endangered or threatened wildlife and support conservation with their art.

Conservation efforts have helped with the recovery of many species, such as the gray wolf, gray whale, grizzly bear, whooping crane, Kirtland's warbler, and peregrine falcon. Some animals, such as the gray wolf, bald eagle, and American alligator have recovered in large part because of the U.S. Endangered Species Act of 1973. In general, species are saved by the combination of research, coordination, intensive management of conservation efforts, increased public awareness, and education. Human awareness is important because many of the main drivers of extinction of species are caused by humans. Some of the leading causes of extinction are overhunting, overfishing, global warming, pollution, habitat fragmentation, and invasive species.

The IUCN Red List of Threatened Species does the most comprehensive worldwide accounting of threatened species, by listing plants, animals, fungi, and algae. Species can be listed between "near threatened" and "extinct," with "endangered" being in the middle. Over 27,000 plants and animals are listed as threatened with extinction, appearing somewhere on the scale. In the United States, the Endangered Species Act determines how threatened species are classified, and species are usually assessed by the U.S. Fish and Wildlife Service. About 700 animal species and 900 plant species are threatened or endangered in the country. Because of the many threats that species face, it is fitting there is an Endangered Species Day.

How to Observe Endangered Species Day

Today should be centered around learning about threats to species, becoming educated on how you can help to protect species and then working to help them, and celebrating species that have been recovered. There are many ways these things can be done, as well as other ways the day can be celebrated!

Learn about endangered species at the websites of the IUCN Red List of Threatened Species or the U.S. Fish and Wildlife Service.

Learn about some of the issues that species face that cause them to become endangered, such as overhunting, overfishing, global warming, pollution, habitat fragmentation, and invasive species.

Find an event to attend. Many often take place at zoos, parks, aquariums, museums, wildlife refuges, schools, and botanical gardens. Check in your community or online for events.

Host an event. Use the online toolkit to help you with your planning.

Donate to groups that support conservation efforts, such as the IUCN Red List of Threatened Species, the World Wildlife Fund, the Defenders of Wildlife, and the National Wildlife Federation.

Learn about some endangered species that have recovered.

If you are a teacher, implement information about endangered species into your lessons today. If you are a young person, participate in the National Endangered Species Day Youth Art Contest (the deadline to enter precedes the day). If you are a college student, read some online suggestions on how to celebrate the day.

Watch an environmental film, a documentary about endangered animals, or a film about endangered species from the Video Project.

Read a book about endangered species.
