Our Endangered
Oceans
(Grades 3-6
in Vic) (3-7 in SA)
In this show we explore some of the troubles that are
occurring in our oceans. We look at the concepts of ‘extinct’ and ‘endangered’,
and show some of the reasons that various species are put at risk. We focus on endangered species such as
turtles, whales, dolphin, sharks and others, and look at some of the things we
can all do to try and keep the populations of these animals viable. Some of man’s bad ecological practices, such
as different forms of pollution and unsustainable fishing practises are
discussed. We look at some of the
introduced species, such as the North Pacific Seastar, that are invading our
waters and making our own species vulnerable. We also look at some of the
success stories that have happened, where previously endangered species are now
on the comeback, and target species that we must watch now and in the future.
