The Red List of endangered species around the world is maintained by the IUCN or World Conservation Union. Species are categorized as either critically endangered, endangered, or vulnerable. The World Conservation Monitoring Centre maintains a searchable database for endangered species. In the United States, the U.S. Fish and Wildlife Service maintains the list of threatened and endangered species in America. The Fish and Wildlife Service site provides lists by state . Also available are statistics, maps, educational resources, and images of endangered and threatened species. According to the FWS July 2001 "boxscore," the total number of endangered and threatened species in the United States is 1244 (507 animals and 737 plants). World Conservation Union (IUCN)

    Extractions: 256 Canadian species are listed by the Scientific Committee on the Status of Endangered Wildlife in Canada (COSEWIC) as being extinct, extirpated, endangered, threatened and vulnerable. The list only includes Canada's vertebrate and vascular plant species and was released in April 1994. Definitions are: Extinct - a species formerly indigenous to Canada that no longer exists anywhere. Extirpated - a species no longer existing in the wild in Canada but occurring elsewhere in the world. Endangered - a species threatened with imminent extinction or extirpation throughout all or a significant portion of its Canadian range. Threatened - a species likely to become endangered in Canada if the factors affecting its vulnerability are not reversed. Vulnerable - a species particularly at risk because of low or declining numbers, small range or for some other reason, but not a threatened species.

A species of plant or animal is considered extinct when there are no living members of that group found alive anywhere on Earth; in other words, all members of that group have died. Human activities have caused the extinction of many species. Additional species are still faced with the possibilty of extinction . In December 1973 the United States Congress signed the Endangered Species Act of 1973, to protect and preserve threatened and endangered plants and animals from extinction. The Endangered Species Act of 1973 replaced two previous laws, the Endangered Species Preservation Act of 1966 and the Endangered Species Conservation Act of 1969.

    Extractions: Threatened and Endangered Species Recovery Act of 2005 . "Pombo's bill is a radical assault on the Endangered Species Act," said Kieran Suckling, policy director of the Center for Biological Diversity. "Its an anti-recovery bill which will not only kill endangered species, it will kill the Endangered Species Act itself." In addition to completely repealing the Endangered Species Act in 2015, the bill would immediately: - Eliminate the requirement to recover endangered species - Reduce protection of threatened species and critical habitat areas - Politicize and eliminate scientific decision-making - Eliminate independent federal oversight - Bury federal biologists under mountains of useless paperwork - Bankrupt the federal agencies by diverting conservation funds to pay landowners and corporation to obey the law - Encourage an increase in industry litigation The Endangered Species and Wetlands Report has separately obtained a copy of the draft and posted it at: www.eswr.com/605/pombodraftbill.pdf

    Extractions: Northern Prairie Wildlife Research Center Home Site Map About ... Web Help Grizzly bear populations have responded favorably to recovery zone management in the three Montana ecosystems in which they occur. However, in certain areas of the Northern Continental Divide Ecosystem, local segments of the population appear to be diminishing. Major threats to the grizzly bear include habitat loss and degradation, primarily attributable to increased road-building on public lands and residential and commercial development of private lands. Quality low-elevation habitat, including essential spring range, is often located on private lands, where the potential for human-bear conflict is high. State and Federal agencies involved in recovery efforts continue to implement the population and habitat management policies detailed in the 1986 Interagency Grizzly Bear Guidelines. Human-caused bear mortality has declined over the past decade in the Northern Continental Divide Ecosystem and the Yellowstone Grizzly Bear Ecosystem. Interagency efforts, including sanitation measures, public education, habitat management, and bear nuisance management, have contributed to this decline. Both populations appear stable except for some local segments in the Northern Continental Divide Ecosystem. Population estimates are a minimum of 400 for the Northern Continental Divide Ecosystem and 228 for the Yellowstone Grizzly Bear Ecosystem.

    Extractions: @import "/level3.css"; @import "splash.css"; back to Education Endangered Species Imagine travelling back in time a few hundred years and visualize the area where you live. What do you see there? No houses or cars, buildings or streets. Instead you see mostly marshes and grasslands, swamps and forests-hardly touched by humans. What animals might you see there? In wild grasslands, you might see a red wolf stalking its prey. In an estuary, you might see a West Indian monk seal sunning itself in the warm water. In a large open plain, you might even see a small herd of roaming buffalo. Florida still has millions of acres of wetlands and wilderness where a variety of animals den and nest, eat and are eaten. However, some animals are missing from the Florida landscape. The wolf, monk seal and buffalo among many others have all disappeared from Florida -they have become extinct. The Florida Game and Fresh Water Fish Commission currently lists more than 100 animals in the state as endangered, threatened, or species of special concern. Each of these species is in danger of becoming extinct unless the harmful factors affecting their habitats cease. Animals in Florida can become extinct for a number of reasons, ranging from loss of habitat to overhunting, from pesticides to vehicle collisions. Some species have become so fragile that a hurricane or viral infection can cause their extinction. Once a species becomes extinct, it is gone forever. Many of Florida's most popular animals including the panther, manatee and our national symbol, the bald eagle face the risk of becoming extinct - unless people act in order to save them. Fortunately, people today care now more than ever and are willing to act, brightening the future of many of the animals currently listed as endangered species.

Rare, endangered, or threatened plants and animals are elements of our natural heritage that are declining rapidly or are on the verge of vanishing. They are plants and animals that exist in small numbers that may be lost forever if we do not take quick action to stop their decline. If we cherish these species, like we do other rare and beautiful objects, these living organisms become treasures of the highest magnitude. Loss of habitat or the "native home" of a plant or animal is usually the most important cause of endangerment. Nearly all plants and animals require food, water, and shelter to survive, just as humans do. Humans are highly adaptable, however, and can produce or gather a wide variety of foods, store water, and create their own shelter from raw material or carry it on their backs in the form of clothing or tents. Other organisms cannot.

Introduced diseases and a century of prairie dog control have brought it to the brink of extinction. With the death of the last of nine captive ferrets at Patuxent Wildlife Research Center in 1978, most people feared the species had become extinct. The USFWS listed the eastern timber wolf (Canis lupus lycaon) as endangered in 1967, and the northern Rocky Mountain subspecies (Canis lupus irremotus) as endangered in 1973. In 1978, the legal status of the gray wolf in North America was clarified by listing the Minnesota wolf population as threatened and all other members of the species Canis lupus south of Canada as endangered.

    Extractions: Ten Questions About The Endangered Species Act 1. Why do we have an Endangered Species Act? he short answer is that the Endangered Species Act ultimately protects us. The long answer involves scientific, economic, aesthetic and philosophical components. The Endangered Species Act is intended to address the serious problem of human-caused acceleration of the species extinction rate. Biologists estimate that in the past 150 years, human activities have increased the global extinction rate by hundreds if not thousands of times, producing the greatest extinction event since the decline of the dinosaurs 65 million years ago. According to noted biologist E. O. Wilson, we may be losing up to 50,000 species per year, potentially resulting in the loss of more than 20 percent of the world's species by the year 2025. Humans rely on biological diversity for food, medicines, recreation and ecosystem services such as providing clean water and clean air.

It's articles like this that help us enjoy Wisconsin Natural Resources magazine from cover to cover. A few years ago I was invited to join Wildlife Manager Mike Gappa on a bear-tagging experience in northern Clark County. A hibernating sow was tranquilized in her den. She and her three cubs were weighed, measured and sampled for further study. The visitors present were impressed with Mike's knowledge and his interest in sharing pertinent facts. Among other things, we learned that the sow does not defecate or urinate in her den during hibernation, yet she still nurses the cubs and keeps them healthy. Mike was an excellent instructor and a true credit to his profession. Your article brought that across very well.
