save them!!


• LOGGERHEAD TURTLE is a large headed turtle of the warm seas. The distinguishing feature of this species is the pattern of scutes between the eyes. The pattern on its head and limbs is of great aesthetic beauty.
• QUEEN ALEXANDRA’S BIRDWINGS live only in Papua New Guinea. They are among the world’s largest butterflies. They have dark but eminent colours and patterns.
• PRZEWALSKI’S HORSES are extinct in the wild. Fortunately, the captive bred animals have been reintroduced. These horses are stubby, have furry hides and are relatively shorter than other breeds.
• KAKAPOS are nocturnal, flightless birds. They are endemic to New Zealand. They are preyed on by introduced rats and stoats.
