Black Footed Ferret
Believe it or not, black-footed ferrets once had tens of thousands of their kind roaming the planet. In the 1900’s their close-to-extinction status became real due to exotic diseases and the destruction of their habitat. In 1986 there were only 18 remaining! As of 2016, there are about 300 in the wild and 300 in captivity.

Blue Fin Tuna
Tuna fish are one of the most commonly eaten fish in the world. In order for humans to consume this creature, they have to first fish them, and that’s where the problem starts. Over-fishing of tuna in general, and of blue fin tuna in particular, has led this animal to the status of an endangered species. At this point the Black Sea no longer has any blue fin tunas left.
