Celebrate Threatened Species Day with a Biologist!

Year 3 – S2 Year 4 – S2 Year 5 – S3 Year 6 – S3 Year 7 – S4 Year 8 – S4 Year 9 – S5 Year 10 – S5 Celebrate Threatened Species Day with a Biologist! Did you know that about 9 of 10 native wildlife you see in Australia are found nowhere else in the world? However, Australia’s wildlife is in grave threat; more than 1,700 species are in decline and at risk of extinction.

In this session, Arman will bring hot news on the most recent estimates on the biodiversity of life on Earth and in Australia — how many animals, plants, fungi, and, not to mention, microbes we’re co-living with. Arman will also use this chance to enlighten participants on how humans drive wildlife to ”extinction” — when wildlife is no longer in existence.

Arman will showcase the story of the Tasmanian Tiger “Thylacene”, whose last member’s death anniversary we commemorate every year on this Threatened Species Day.

Arman hopes to raise a call to action — how we, as individuals or as a group, can help secure a brighter future for the biodiversity of life on Earth.
