Question

Difference betw. Extinct and endangered species

Answer 1

1. When an organism vanishes from a place or from the world, we say that it has become extinct.
2. When very few of a particular kind of organism are left in a place or in the world, we say that it is endangered.

Answer 2

Extinct species are those whose existence have been lost a couple of million years ago.
Ex : dinosaurs who were believed to be extinct due to a meteor shower a million years ago.

Endangered species are those who are on a verge of extinction and only a few are left in the world.
Ex: lions are hunted on a massive scale and they are on a verge of extinction if the hunters are not stopped.
