This site which is extremely comprehensive in the area - Endangered Species of the Next Millennium - can be found at http://library.thinkquest.org/25014/english.index.shtml
This site is great for children to use because it highlights the reasons why animals become endangered, it has a vast list of animals which have become endangered species and a wide range of pictures, video clips and sound pieces. Also it gives a range of ideas on how the children can help with prevention of endangered species.
