Endangered Animals

Animal species can be classified as the following: An animal that is extinct means that it is no longer living in the world today. Endangered Extinct Threatened

Animal species can be classified as the following: An animal that is endangered means that there is such a small number of the animal in existence that the species is at risk of. Endangered Extinct Threatened

Endangered Extinct Threatened Animal species can be classified as the following: A threatened species is a native species that is at risk of becoming endangered in the near future.

Extinct Animals

Endangered Animals

Threatened Animals

Habitat destruction – Clear cutting – Mining – Dams – Urbanization Reasons for Endangerment

Invasive Species – Species that are not native to a habitat can have a negative affect on the current species that live in a specific habitat. Reasons for Endangerment

Pollution – Air – Water – Land – Chemical Reasons for Endangerment

Climate Change – Changes in the Earth’s weather affects animal’s habitats and how they live and migrate Reasons for Endangerment

Over exploitation – Illegal Hunting – Excessive Fishing – Illegal Pet Trade Reasons for Endangerment

There are many organizations, national and international that are helping to educate society and create policies regarding endangered species What is being done?
