Endangered Species!

We are having such a great time reading about all the 

Endangered Species this week around Blogville!!

Here are the Endangered Species we chose:

Southern Sea Otters used to live way down in Southern California all the way up the California coast and even over into Russia and Japan. Then humans started using their furs to keep them warm and they almost became extinct!
Thankfully humans smartened up a little and the Southern Sea Otter population is growing again! We only have river otters by us, but Mama loves watching the Southern Sea Otters when she visits the coast a little farther south on the California Coastline.

 Western Snowy Plovers are found along the beaches from our area in Humboldt County, California, up the coast to Washington State. They nest right above the high tide area. It is believed that reduced
reproduction rate due to a mix of human and dog foot traffic and inclement weather have kept them on the endangered species list.
