Biodiversity is undergoing an unprecedented crisis in the planet's recent history. An increasing number of animal species are experiencing population declines and, in many cases, are facing extinction. This loss of biodiversity is one of the greatest challenges of our time. But what can we do to protect the species that inhabit our planet?
