Hey guys, today is Endangered Species Day! An endangered species is a plant or animal that has a really small population and without assistance might go extinct. Unfortunately humans are a major reason as to why so many species are endangered. Did you know that in South Carolina alone there are 38 endangered species of plants and animals? If you thought that was a lot the U.S. is home to over 1300 endangered species as a whole! Luckily there are many laws put in place to protect them but we must also do our part. Remember to respect the animals and habitat that make up the world around us.
