X is for Axolotl

X is for Axolotl

$15.00Price

Exploration of the human impact on species, specifically the threats on axolotls. Although they don’t start with X, they do have priority because they are critically endangered and need some love. Sadly, due to pollution, habitat loss, and urbanization their populations dwindle, leaving only 1000 or so left in the wild. Other threats caused by human action are contributing to the exotic pet trade and using them in medicine.

 

These amazing critters can be saved by:

🤸‍♂️ if you see a post about axolotls, share it and amplify their endangerment. Advocate for them whenever you can. This can prevent real harm to their species.

📦 try to stop encouraging pet trade. Having one for yourself doesn't really help the species survive as a whole, in reality it stops them from reproducing on their own and decreases genetic diversity. Instead put the money you spend caring for these animals into conservation and research methods for a better habitat for them in the wild.

🧼 switch to more natural products that end up getting disposed down the drain like cleaning agents, hygiene products, and every soap you use. No matter where you are in the world, our chemical runoff can end up in places and ruin the quality of the waters that Axolotls live in.

🛠 support reputable organizations by donating or volunteering your time. Use your skills to help these foundations thrive so they can do the most in helping this species survive.
