鳄鱼牌替换logo,竟是为了保护濒危物种?
Lacoste, a world-famous French clothing brand, replaced its iconic crocodile logo with endangered animal images to spread awareness about these species and dangers that they are in. In a collaboration with the International Union for Conservation of Nature, Lacoste presented ten new designs of their iconic polo-shirts. Each of the ten featured animals are on the brink of extinction. The number of polos produced for each series corresponds to the remaining population sizes in the wild. By purchasing the shirts, people are participating in helping IUCN and Lacoste in the fight for wildlife conservation worldwide. The Burmese Roofed Turtle Rampant egg collection for local and distant consumption, easily predictable nesting sites and reproduction periods make it an endangered species with man as its first predator. The Javan Rhino They are endangered because of their low reproduction rate as well as intensive poaching for their horns. The Northern Sportive Lemur Intensive poaching and the destruction of its habitat for agriculture and deforestation make it a critically-endangered species. The California Condor Its survival is threatened by lead poisoning and human-induced garbage that pollutes its natural habitat. The Kakapo It is an endangered species mostly because of its very low reproductive rate. The Vaquita It is a critically endangered species due to shrimp gillnets in which it can get entangled. The Anegada Ground Iguana Unfortunately, cattle breeding and agriculture make their habitat shrink and feral cats and dogs find them quite tasty. The Cao-vit Gibbon This gibbon can be found in a forest located at the border of China and Vietnam, where deforestation reduces its habitat. The Saola Their survival is threatened due to intensive poaching in the area, making the saola one of the only large mammals in critical danger of extinction. The Sumatran Tiger Nowadays, the main threats it faces are poaching and deforestation. |
