Africa's wild giraffe population has plunged dramatically and the world's tallest animals are in the process of a "silent extinction", a conservation group has reported
Giraffe populations have fallen by up to 40% over the last 30 years, the International Union for Conservation of Nature says in the latest edition of its "Red List" of endangered species The gentle giants' numbers have dipped from as many as 163,000 in 1985 to just over 97,000 in 2015, according to the report The steep decline was one of the headline statistics from the report, and is driven by some familiar factors including habitat loss, civil unrest and
(3)Many species are slipping away before we can even describe them This IUCN Red List update shows that the scale of the global extinction crisis may be even greater than we thought
Among bird species under threat is the African grey parrot, a popular pet, which is now classed as "Endangered" on the list because of "unsustainable trapping and habitat loss."
Across animals, birds, insects, aquatic life and plants, the IUCN Red List now includes 85,604 species, of which 24,307 are threatened with extinction
The plunge in the number of wild giraffe prompted the group to move the animals from the
"least concern" rating to "vulnerable", in the report "While giraffes are commonly seen on safari, in the media and in zoos, people ‒ including conservationists ‒ are unaware that these majestic animals are undergoing a silent extinction," IUCN co-Chairman Julian Fennessy, was quoted as saying "With a decline of almost 40% in the last three decades alone, the world's tallest animal is under severe pressure in some of its core ranges across East, Central and West Africa As one of the world's most iconic animals, it is timely that we take risks for the giraffe before it is too late." Of nine subspecies of giraffe, five are declining in numbers, while three have
increasing populations and one is stable

A There is a decline of almost 40% in the number of giraffes in the last 30 years B The causes leading to the significant decline of giraffes are different from those happening to other species

The primary attraction of snorkeling is the opportunity to observe underwater life in a natural setting, such as coral reefs, fish, starfish, and mollusks Other organisms that can be seen while snorkeling include various forms of seaweed, jellyfish, shrimp and $ea turtles Snorkeling
requires no special training, only the ability to swim and to breathe through the snorkel
However, it is considered advisable that one get some instruction from a tour guide, dive shop, or equipment rental shop, any of which often can be found around popular snorkeling locations Instruction generally covers equipment usage, basic safety, what to look for, and what to look out for, including how not to damage fragile organisms such as coral As with scuba diving, it is always recommended that one, should not snorkel alone, but rather with a friend, a guide, or a tour group
Swim fins used in snorkeling are usually longer than those used in diving Snorkel is a tube about thirty centimeters (twelve inches) long, usually J-shaped, fitted with a mouthpiece, and constructed of rubber or plastic It is used for breathing air from above the water surface when the mouth and nose are submerged, either when snorkeling or during a surface swim before or after scuba diving The snorkel usually has a piece of rubber that attaches the snorkel to the outside of the strap of the diving mask, as sticking the snorkel in between the strap and the mask could cause the mask to leak, or risk losing the snorkel should the diver choose to switch to scuba
Typically, the diving mask also serves to prevent breathing through the nose, so that one is forced to breathe through the snorkel This also provides some negative pressure which helps keep the mask sealed against the face, though attempting to breathe out through the nose can break this seal and fog the mask
