Background: The latest update of the IUCN Red List of Threatened Species(TM) shows that a third of assessed species are threatened with extinction. From Polar Bears and Leatherback Turtles to the Chinese Giant Salamander and the Mountain Tapir, we've got the facts, figures, photos and habitat maps of 365 of the species under threat. These can be featured in newspapers, on websites and blogs, one per day for every day of 2010, the International Year of Biodiversity.
