Editorial Reviews:
Consider Amazing Endangered Animals a primer for junior environmentalists. There is much to nurture their thinking in this video, which breezily relates complicated concepts without putting young viewers on information overload. Enough animals speed across the screen to make any child wide-eyed, from pigs to leopards, elephants to whales, and dozens in between. One minute it's explaining how thousands of animals are endangered, and the next it's doing an engaging job demonstrating how the dwindling rain forests play a part in endangering animals. Specific instances of extinction are traced, such as the passenger pigeon's eradication in 1914, but some of its tales are more hopeful, including a Central American community that helped save a group of incredibly photogenic monkeys. It's a bit like National Geographic meets the Weekly Reader, and the adults won't mind listening in. --Valerie J. Nelson
