An Atlas of Endangered Species
Three species vanish every hour. Our incredible world is at risk, and we all have a part to play in saving it.
'A call to arms for everyone' - Steve Backshall
'Eye-opening' - New Scientist
The diversity of life on earth is astounding, with each species perfectly adapted to its environment. Sharks can navigate the ocean using electromagnetic fields; sloths use algae as camouflage; albatross can fly for hours without beating their wings; and orca pods each have unique cultures and languages.
But every hour, three species disappear.
Our incredible world is at risk.
Megan McCubbin reveals the stories of the scientists, rangers and conservationists who are fighting to save these extraordinary creatures from extinction. An Atlas of Endangered Species shows us that the battle is on for their survival - and we all have a part to play.
'Joyful and heartbreaking, an inspiring celebration of some of our planet's most endangered species and those who champion them' - Dave Goulson, author of Silent Earth
'A powerful, passionate plea for a wilder future' - Sophie Pavelle, author of Forget Me Not
