Question

Short essay on endangered birds

Answer 1

Answer:

An endangered species is any species of fish, animal, or plant that is in danger of extinction throughout all or a significant portion of its range. Subspecies and distinct populations of birds may also be listed. There are approximately 1500 endangered species, 900 in the United States. A “threatened species” is any species of bird or any other organism that is likely to become endangered within the foreseeable future. There are 230 threatened species in the United States. A candidate species is one whose status warrants listing but whose listing is precluded by lack of administrative resources and/or funding. See the IUCN Red Lists for a list of worldwide threatened species and an informative explanation of what being in danger of extinction really means. Today it is estimated that one of every eight bird species in the world is at risk of extinction and in the U.S. and England it is closer to one in four. See also Extinct Birds.
