Hoodia Gordonii Cactus Plant – Is It An Endangered Specie?
The Hoodia Gordonii cactus plant has gained its popularity in the late 19th century and is still the first and sometimes the only choice of dieters nowadays. The Hoodia Gordonii is a plant that can be found in the Kalahari and Namib Desert in South Africa. It has been used for generations by the San Bushmen to suppress their appetite and thirst while providing them with enough energy on their long hunting trips. There has been no known or recorded adverse effects on the plant during clinical and laboratory tests.
The Hoodia Gordonii cactus plant is actually mistakenly called a cactus because of its significant resemblance to the cactus family. As a matter of fact, it is not a cactus at all. It is from the family Apocynaceae, while the cactus is from the plant family Cactaceae. The family Apocynaceae or dogbane family is mainly composed of trees, shrubs or herbs that has milky juice in the inside and oftentimes have flashy flowers. A mature plant can grow up to more than 6 feet in height. Other names for it are "Bushman's Hat" and "Queen Of the Namib".
There are over 20 species of Hoodia. However, there is only one Hoodia Gordonii and it grows exclusively in certain South African deserts only. According to scientists the specific type of soil and the right amount of sunshine the plant gets from these deserts may be the reason for this plant to not grow anywhere else in the world. Its extraordinary properties to curb ones diet and thirst plus having no side effects make it even more attractive for manufacturers.
To prevent this kind of plant from disappearing in its habitat, the CITES or the Convention on International Trade in Endangered Species of Wild Fauna and Flora needs to be secured by the manufacturer. The Hoodia Gordonii is not yet listed under the endangered species but soon will be if the trade for the plant will not be controlled.
Other private companies have farmed the Hoodia plant in greenhouses in the Kalahari Desert to be able to meet the supply and demand of the target manufacturers and consumers. Manufacturers left only a small portion of free growing Hoodia Gordonii plants in unsecured areas of the Desert for outside company exports. The CITES have granted the export of the Hoodia Gordonii to only a few companies that are legally allowed to do so. So the next time you buy a Hoodia Gordonii cactus plant extract product it should not come as a surprise if it costs a lot.

![]() National Geographic's America's Endangered Species: Don't Say Good-Bye [VHS] List Price: Sale Price: $9.94 You save: $10.01 (50%) Eligible for free shipping!Availability: Usually ships in 1-2 business days See Reviews For This Product DescriptionPhotographer Susan Middleton and David Liittschwager are in a race against the clock to capture powerful portraits of America's most threatened creatures. Join them on their unforgettable adventure that takes them from the California Sierra to the deep South, from the woods of North Carolina to the Pacific's shores. Along the way, they encounter a camera-shy Black-Footed ferret, capture the beauty of the golden trout, help release a pair of red wolves back to the wild, and watch from a front-row seat as a bald eagle chick is returned its cliffside nest. Their every picture tells a story...and makes a plea: DON'T SAY GOOD-BYE to America's natural treasures. The folks at National Geographic, with the help of narrator James Woods, take us on a zigzag road trip across the U.S. in this 1997 documentary. We follow photographers Susan Middleton and David Liitschwager, who gave up their earlier pursuits (museum and fashion photography, respectively) to capture on film the rarest fauna and flora of the North American continent. A selection of these pictures was published in their book, Witness: Endangered Species of North America. This hour-long film takes us from a black-footed ferret breeding farm in Wyoming to Florida manatee pools to the Presidio in San Francisco where we see a plant that is so rare, only one exists and its exact location is a government secret. The portraiture is vibrant and truly stunning and the film is interspersed with interview clips of scientific luminaries such as Harvard's Edward O. Wilson. Despite a subject matter that is necessarily depressing, America's Endangered Species: Don't Say Good-Bye outlines a few recovery success stories and highlights the efforts of individuals throughout the U.S. who are determined to make sure that these species are around for future generations of National Geographic fans. --Douglas Dalrymple |

![]() Kindness to Animals List Price: See Reviews For This Product DescriptionMany books have been written about animals, and very good books too, giving a great deal of information. Most of them are called works of Natural History; and they usually give some description of the birds and beasts, fishes and insects, that are known to man. I am not going to write such a book as that; but to say a little about different kinds of creatures that we are all in the habit of seeing, and to tell you a few things of some which have belonged to me, or have come under my own observation; so that, at least, I can promise to write nothing but what I know to be true. I have not learned their characters and habits from books, but by watching them ever since I was a very young child; and many a happy hour I have spent in that delightful employment. |
