In this July 9, 2014 photo, Indian star tortoise huddle together at the Bannerghatta National Park on the outskirts of Bangalore, India. Wildlife activists in India have raised an alarm that scores of lesser known animal species are being pushed to the brink of extinction because of rampant poaching and trafficking, while conservation efforts over the past two decades were focused on saving India's iconic tigers and rhinos. Tens of thousands of lesser-known animals, such as pangolins, tortoises and geckos, have been killed or smuggled out of India to supply a growing demand for the skin, parts or flesh of these animals, or sold to people wanting to keep them as exotic pets.
