They are dying. There is no point in denying it or trying to sugarcoat the situation. Some species seem doomed. Others have a chance of survival, as long as our interventions are more direct and positive. What you will see below is a gallery of animals like many others, but it carries a difference: One pixel equals one individual. Each image represents an entire species...
Hunting. Destruction of their habitat. Deforestation and agricultural expansion. Climate change. Lack of genetic diversity. Many species have crossed the limit. Others are about to do so. The images you will see below symbolize their current situation through the number of pixels. Fewer than 300,000 chimpanzees. Fewer than 50,000 Asian elephants. Fewer than 5,000 African wild dogs. Fewer than 2,500 Bengal tigers. Fewer than 60 Javan rhinoceroses. Less. Less.
