shrew, the only shrew found in Australia, is now
extinct. While there have been no sightings of the shrew
since 1984, the International Union for the Conservation
of Nature has declared the long-suspected reality
tragically official. Unfortunately, the shrew is only
one of many mammals lost forever in Australia.<B> Since
the 1700s, Almost 40 Australian mammals have gone
extinct which is a rate far higher than any other
country. </B>But it doesn't have to be this way, and
conservation commitments right now can protect any more
species from going extinct in Australia. </P>

<P style="MARGIN: 0px; FONT-SIZE: 16px">In 2022,
Australia pledged to halt the extinction crisis,
demonstrating an exciting commitment to the country's
species, many of which are currently at high
risk. But, while many scientists agreed the pledge
was necessary, some warned that the roughly $224 million
the Australian government had set aside to tackle the
extinction crisis was not enough. Some estimate that
over $1 billion per year is needed to actually end
extinction in Australia. <B>That may seem like a
lot of money, but keeping species alive is
priceless. <A
