Endangered is a new Off Broadway show for kids. It is about endangered animals, and it is the first family-friendly eco-musical. The show was actually commissioned by the Smithsonian Zoo, and it is now making its New York area debut. The arrival of the show inspired us to take a closer look at some endangered species and the reasons they are becoming extinct. See directly below for more about the five different types of animals we learned about. For more about Endangered the Musical and/or to enter to win a family four pack of tickets to the show, see the bottom of this post.
1) Sea Otters - Sea otters are endangered due to various reasons. The first reason is water pollution. Another reason is they are getting stuck in fishing nets. The last reason is they are getting attacked by sharks. One way to help sea otters is to ride a bike or walk sometime instead of using a car. Another way to help sea otters is to not leave garbage or fishing nets in the ocean. Save sea otters! Right below this are some pictures of what sea otters look like.
