Hey Steemit. Till now, maybe each and every newbie in Steemit may have noticed that currently it's nail biting competition. And of course, most probably, there is no topic that is left untouched. So some people are out of IDEAS and I am one of them (actually, I am was).
Today, I am going to share with you something, awesome, but heart-breaking. As you have already read the title, it is about the mammals that are in danger. There are also other types of organisms that are in danger, but we will discuss about them some other day.
Scientists think that within the next 30 years, nearly a quarter of the species of mammals alive today may disappear, altogether , becoming extinct.

Species in danger are classified into three groups, i.e., vulnerable, endangered and/or critically endangered. Surprisingly as per a census of 2012, 505 mammal species are vulnerable, 448 species are endangered and 188 species are critically endangered.
About 15 percent of European mammal species are in danger of extinction.
As the data above suggests, the no. of species that are facing the danger of extinction is very high (which is of course out of the limits of this post).
So we will discuss about 3 major mammal species that are threatened to extinction.
