To start off: the Bengal tiger!

The IUCN classifies these big cats as endangered, numbering around 2,500 individuals in the wild. They are threatened by poaching and habitat loss due to human activities. Bengal tigers are the national animal of India and Bangladesh. Unlike most big cats, tigers enjoy water!

Ooh, I love animals! Could I be added to the pinglist?

I'd also love to be on the ping-list.

I always love learning more about animals.

Please add me to the pinglist.

@LizardKing @DracoMalfoyy @Tealwing @MightyTharos Thanks for joining! :) Today’s species: the vaquita! [img]http://www.pegasusfoundation.org/wp-content/uploads/2016/09/Vaquita.jpg[/img] The vaquita ([i]Phocoena sinus[/i]) is the most endangered cetacean alive today, classified as critically endangered with only about 12-15 individuals left. They are endemic to the Gulf of California and threatened by bycatch, accidentally being caught in fishermen’s nets. They usually live alone or in groups of two or three. Despite bans on the nets that often trap them (gillnets), the population of these little porpoises dwindles due to continued fishing accidents and the unfortunate deaths of vaquitas attempted to capture for captive breeding.

I need this in my life!

Could I be added to the pinglist?
