Original Message The group says more than a third of the estimated 280 species around the world are now threatened with extinction.

The unsustainable collection of turtles for food and to supply a lucrative pet trade are the key drivers behind the fall in numbers.

Habitat loss as a result of river-damming for hydro-electricity is another major concern.
