Because of its unique distance from most of the other continents, Australia is home to some of the world's most unusual animals. Many of these amazing animals face extinction due to poaching, habitat loss, or climate change. This book profiles Australia's endangered animals and explains how climate and habitat sustain these animals. The book also describes laws and programs that have been put in place to protect Australia's animals.
