Endangered Species in Russia

SAIGA ANTELOPE

The saiga lives on the steppes of the North-West Precaspian region of Russia. It has got a longer nose than other antelopes. It can run fast and it can swim well too. The saiga lives in open spaces. It travels from place to place in big groups. The saiga eats grass and other plants. The number of Saiga antelopes is falling because people hunt them for their horns. Today the saiga population is only 1500 and each year this number gets smaller.

Females are smaller than males but they live ten years longer. The Steller sea lion lives on land and in the sea. It likes cold water and it eats all kinds of fish.
