The Animal Kingdom is in Critical Condition. The affliction isn't a disease, but rather a crisis of endangerment that threatens to wipe out many of the world's animal species forever. Ironically, the only species capable of saving these animals is the same one that's responsible for putting them in danger. The plight of the 16,928 species that are threatened with extinction is largely do to a devastating man-made ecological changes such as habitat loss, pollution, climate change, and unsustainable exploitation. - Jeff Corwin, 100 Heartbeats

The thermal waterlily, which grew around freshwater hot springs, was discovered in 1987 by German botanist Professor Eberhard Fischer of Koblenz-Landau University. It is known from just one location in Mashyuza, in southwest Rwanda. However, it disappeared from there about two years ago due to over-exploitation of the hot spring that fed this fragile habitat. Water was prevented from reaching the surface, resulting in the desiccation of the few square metres where this species grew, and no plant is known to have survived in the wild. - Kew Gardens
