within a few years, they went extinct in nature. ultimately, those animals died out and the species was lost forever. they cannot be studied and longer. arctic ice is turning the survival of the polar bear. with a loss of the polar bear may come the loss of potential medicines for diseases like osteoporosis, kidney failure, and diabetes. essentiallyrs are in mobile as every hibernating bear is for five-sen months. yet they do not get osteoporosis. their bones don't thin. there are the only mammal that does not get osteoporosis with prolonged immobility. if we were in mobile for five months, if we were hospitalized or paralyzed, we would lose one- third of our bone mass. mobility, the balance shifts to losing bone. osteoporosis. this is an enormous public health problem in the united states and the rest of the world. 70,000 people bought in this country every year, costing the u.s. economy $18 billion a year. one-third of women over 65, post menopausal women, will have a fracture not caused by injury, but caused by osteoporosis. pola

it's so rare that some experts now believe it may already be extinct in the wild.y'll eventually be able to reintroduce them into the wild. we are waiting to the arrival of two very important passengers, two spix's macaw. they are making their way from berlin. it is an 18—hour flight and we hope they're fine upon arrival. we make sure they are exported from countries that are free from bird flew and they have also have to comply with our import conditions which make sure they are healthy, free from diseases and they also have to undergo tests to make sure they are free from bird flew. the first morning they are here in singapore. so far, frieda, our spix's macaw is already eating and happily interacting with the staff. the lears macaw is wendangered now. the spix's macaw is possibly extinct in the wild. the spix macaw is one step away from extension. extension is forever. if nothing is done to save these birds now, these birds will disappearfrom the face of the earth. absolutely beautiful. you have been watching newsday. stay with us. coming up: the united arab emi

if there is no value and we can't hunt these animals, they will be extinct. that would be. they like to talk about conservation, they are just brainwashing. they enjoy killing. the change is coming. we're going to put it into this. surely we want our world to survive. we have to keep this fight going. this is my trophy, and there's not any bureaucrat that can take it away from me. now — that's the taster of the film trophy — which is in cinemas and downloadable later this week. it looks at the money that can be raised and the habitat protected by allowing some commercial hunting. or more intriguingly, the idea of farming rhino in order to sell their ivory. clearly, this has not been the traditional approach to animal protection. well, joining me arejohn hume, who claims to be the world's biggest private rhino breeder. he features in the film, and wants to sell ivory that is humanely taken from the animals. also with me is tania mccrea—steele from the international fund for animal welfare. very good evening to you both. john, tell us what you do — you've got h

i think that there is no peaceful extinction of slavery a prospect for us, he wrote his pro-counsel. the signal failure of henry clay and other good and great men in 1849 to affect anything favor of gradual emancipation in kentucky together with 1000 of the site extinguishes that hope utterly. yet another complicating factor entered into into the equation. between 1845-1854, 3 million immigrants arrived in the united states, the first great wave of immigration. about 40% were poor irish catholics fleeing the potato famine. about another 40% were germans playing the crushing of the liberal democratic revolution in germany of 1848. conservative protestants viewed the irish especially as a source of crime, corruption and poverty. both the irish and germans were beer drinkers.

so what changed conservationists say vultures all over the world are now threatened with extinction. including in europe where there are hardly any vultures seen in the wild with the exception of one place. vultures are still a common sight in the spanish pyrenees mountains these fascinating birds once played an important role in the ecosystem across the whole of europe by getting rid of rotting carcass it's. today they can't rely as soley on their own scavenging skills to find enough to eat antony market leader and jordi canoed are working to protect the vulture populations canoe drives up here every saturday to feed them when we see a boat or a. puppy i am happy. antony maga leader is an ecologist he works for the vulture conservation project here in northern spain as a scientific adviser he studies the birds from a hideout. canoed meanwhile distributes pieces of meat for the vultures. of. the feeding station in the conservation area is a stroke of luck for market leader and his research. i feeling that it's probably their best so if you don't want to see together they differ but t
