An endangered species is a species of organisms that will likely become extinct . The phrase 'endangered species' colloquially refers to any species that fits this description whereas conservation biologists typically with it refer to species that are designated Endangered in the IUCN Red List , wherein "endangered" is the second most severe conservation status for wild populations, following Critically Endangered . 3079 animals and 2655 plants are Endangered worldwide, compared with 1998 levels of 1102 and 1197, respectively. [1] The amount, population trend, and conservation status of each species can be found in the Lists of organisms by population . |

An endangered species is a species of organisms facing a very high risk of extinction . The phrase is used vaguely in common parlance for any species fitting this description, but its use by conservation biologists typically refers to those deigned Endangered in the IUCN Red List , where it is the second most severe conservation status for wild populations, following Critically Endangered . There are currently 3079 animals and 2655 plants classified as Endangered worldwide, compared with 1998 levels of 1102 and 1197, respectively. [1] The amount, population trend, and conservation status of each species can be found in the Lists of organisms by population . |

An endangered species is a population of organisms which is at risk of becoming extinct because it is either few in numbers, or threatened by changing environmental or predation parameters. The International Union for Conservation of Nature (IUCN) has calculated the percentage of endangered species as 40 percent of all organisms based on the sample of species that have been evaluated through 2006.

An endangered species is a population of organisms which is at risk of becoming extinct because it is either few in numbers, or threatened by changing environmental or predation parameters. Also it could mean that due to deforestation there may be a lack of food and/or water. The International Union for Conservation of Nature (IUCN) has calculated the percentage of endangered species as 40 percent of all organisms based on the sample of species that have been evaluated through 2006. [2] (Note: the IUCN groups all threatened species for their summary purposes.) Many nations have laws offering protection to conservation reliant species : for example, forbidding hunting , restricting land development or creating preserves. Only a few of the many species at risk of extinction actually make it to the lists and obtain legal protection. Many more species become extinct, or potentially will become extinct, without gaining public notice. |

An endangered species is a population of an organism which is at risk of becoming extinct because it is either few in numbers, or threatened by changing environmental or predation parameters. An endangered species is usually a taxonomic species , but may be another evolutionary significant unit . The World Conservation Union (IUCN) has calculated the percentage of endangered species as 40 percent of all organisms based on the sample of species that have been evaluated through 2006. [2] (Note: the IUCN groups all threatened species for their summary purposes.) Many nations have laws offering protection to these species: for example, forbidding hunting , restricting land development or creating preserves.

An endangered species is a population of an organism (usually a taxonomic species ), which because it is either (a) few in number or (b) threatened by changing environmental or predation parameters, is at risk of becoming extinct . Many countries have laws offering special protection to these species or their habitats : for example, forbidding hunting , restricting land development or creating preserves. Only a few of the many endangered species actually make it to the lists and obtain legal protection. Many more species become extinct, or potentially will become extinct, without gaining public notice. |

An endangered species is a species whose population is so small that it is in danger of becoming extinct . Many countries have laws offering special protection to these species (forbidding hunting , banning development, etc. of their habitats ) to prevent their extinction. Only a few of the many truly endangered species actually make it to the lists and obtain legal protection. Many more species become extinct, or potentially will become extinct, without gaining public notice. |
