4. Recycle, reduce and Reuse... Tapirs are critically endangered because their habitat and environment is getting ruined, so the outcome means that tapirs won't have a place to live. 'Recycle, reduce and Reuse' is a good way of saving their environment.
According to Defenders of Wildlife, a wildlife charity organization, sea otters are endangered because they were nearly hunted to extinction in the 1700s and 1800s. Sea otters once numbered in the hundreds of thousands, but fur traders hunted them in large numbers and, consequently, reduced their population size. The International Fur Seal Treaty of 1911, the Marine Mammal Protection Act and the Endangered Species Act of 1977 helped stop the sea otter population from dwindling. However, the sea otter population has been slow to recover. In addition to oil spills, sea otters also face other human threats.
