How can we save our planet's animal species from extinction?

On the next Your Call, we'll talk about which of the world's animals are endangered and why, and whether we can do anything to pull them back from the brink. One in four mammals, one in eight birds, and one third of all amphibians are at risk of extinction. How many animals have we already lost? How is that affecting the food chain, and ultimately, us? Join us live at 11 or send us an email at feedback@yourcallradio.org. Are extinctions inevitable? What are we doing to stop them? It's Your Call, with Rose Aguilar and you.

Guests:
Caroline Fraser, author of Rewilding the World: Dispatches from the Conservation Revolution

Noah Greenwald, director of the Endangered Species Program with the Center for Biological Diversity
