As you may have noticed, this beetle has a beautiful rainbow colour to its shell. It is usually known as either the Snowdon leaf beetle, after the mountain in Wales, or the rainbow leaf beetle due to its colours.
Mountain species like these are at particular risk from the changing climate, as they move further up the mountain to escape warming temperatures, but there comes a point where they cannot move any further up the mountain. It is classified as Endangered in the UK.

My answer and my thought:
I love Giant Pandas; they mainly live at Sichuan province in China. The giant panda’s diet is primarily herbivorous, consisting almost exclusively of bamboo. However, the climate has changing rapidly in China; it is difficult for giant pandas live in the natural world by themselves, so there is Center called a Chengdu Research Base of Giant Panda in Sichuan in China, that looks after Giant Pandas. Giant Pandas is very lucky, I hope Polar bear and other dangerous animals have the same luck as Giant Pandas has.

There are some particularly rare species of animals, some of which can be found only in Mediterranean Sea and are in immediate danger of extinction. For example, the Mediterranean seal (Monachus monachus) is endangered as their population decreasing, numbering no more than 700 animals. Most of the Mediterranean seal population lives in Greece,and specifically in Sporades.
