This is followed by detailed surveys of the seven key biological areas of the world, which explain the problems they face, and identify those animals and plants at risk. The final section describes what steps are being taken at international and national levels to preserve and conserve our planet's natural heritage, charting the successes and failures of the conservation movement, and setting out what the individual can do to help.

'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.
