Default Endangered Species Day

Today is Endangered Species Day.

Check your inventory against the Red List. (Just for fun. No hobbyist should be in possession of an endangered specie.)

Endangered means endangered in the wild. There is a long list of species of plants and animals listed as endangered and even extirpated which have stable captive populations. If it weren't for hobbyists some of these would be extinct.

It seems probable artificial propagation of endangered species, and wide distribution for cultivation, removes a lot of demand for poached wild plants.
