[12:32.11]Reptiles at Risk
[12:34.51]A research made in conjunction with
[12:36.60]200 species conservation experts has found
[12:40.04]the future of 19% of the world's reptiles is threatened.
[12:45.49]Experts also confirmed that 47% are vulnerable
[12:50.02]and highlighted the possible extinction of three species.
[12:55.02]Reptiles are a group of animals
[12:56.80]including turtles, tortoises, snakes, lizards, crocodiles and worm lizards.
[13:04.28]The lizard-like animals found only in New Zealand are also included.
[13:10.76]Usually, reptiles can be indicators of environmental problems.
[13:15.93]Many species are highly specialized
[13:18.23]in terms of habitat use and climatic conditions.
[13:22.62]This makes them particularly sensitive to environmental changes.
[13:27.40]According to the study, levels of threat to the diverse group of animals
[13:32.92]are particularly high in tropical regions
[13:36.14]due to pressures from agriculture and logging.
[13:40.24]Many species of reptiles are in danger of disappearing.
[13:44.56]The survey is aimed to provide an indicator of biological diversity
[13:49.42]both now and over time,
[13:52.03]in an effort to make such research more collaborative.
