A taxon is Endangered (EN) when the best available evidence indicates that it meets any of the criteria A to E for Endangered, and it is therefore considered to be facing a very high risk of extinction in the wild. Learn more at: https://www.iucnssg.org/iucnredlist.html
Scarlet Macaw
Scarlet Macaw (Ara macao) has an extremely large range, and hence does not approach the thresholds for Vulnerable under the range size criterion (extent of occurrence <20,000 km2 combined with a declining or fluctuating range size, habitat extent/quality, or population size and a small number of locations or severe fragmentation). Despite the fact that the…
Savannah Sparrow
Savannah Sparrow (Passerculus sandwichensis) has an extremely large range, and hence does not approach the thresholds for Vulnerable under the range size criterion (Extent of Occurrence <20,000 km2 combined with a declining or fluctuating range size, habitat extent/quality, or population size and a small number of locations or severe fragmentation). Despite the fact that the…
Hooded Warbler
Hooded Warbler (Setophaga citrina) has an extremely large range, and hence does not approach the thresholds for Vulnerable under the range size criterion (Extent of Occurrence <20,000 km2 combined with a declining or fluctuating range size, habitat extent/quality, or population size and a small number of locations or severe fragmentation). The population trend appears to…
Guanaco
Guanaco (Lama guanicoe) is considered to be of Least Concern based upon its wide continental distribution (around one million km2), its presumed total population size (around one million adults), and the presence of numerous protected areas across its range of distribution (56 protected areas covering around 146,000 km2). However, Guanaco actual conservation measures continue to…
Ovenbird
Ovenbird (Seiurus aurocapilla) has an extremely large range, and hence does not approach the thresholds for Vulnerable under the range size criterion (Extent of Occurrence <20,000 km2 combined with a declining or fluctuating range size, habitat extent/quality, or population size and a small number of locations or severe fragmentation). The population trend appears to be stable,…
Eastern Box Turtle
Eastern Box Turtle (Terrapene carolina) is considered Vulnerable because it is documented as rare with a total population estimated to be less than 10,000, it has a fairly small area of occurrence, and no subpopulation is estimated to contain more than 1,000 individuals; there is an ongoing decline in the number of individuals, due to…
Reindeer
Reindeer (Rangifer tarandus) is categorized as Vulnerable A2a due to an observed 40% decline over three generations (about 21-27 years) across the circum-Arctic countries, when Rangifer declined from about 4,800,000 to 2,890,410 individuals. Uncertainty is high about the extent of the decline and the under-lying mechanisms except at a general level. Extent and causes of…
I’iwi
I’iwi (Drepanis coccinea) has experienced rapid declines in some parts of its range, and is projected to decline substantially by 2100 as a result of climate change and the resultant increased prevalance of avian malaria. The newly-introduced tree disease known as Rapid ‘Öhi’a Death may also cause declines. Overall, a population reduction of 30-49% is…
Sprague’s Pipit
Sprague’s Pipit (Anthus spragueii) qualifies as Vulnerable owing to a rapid ongoing population decline. However, the rate of decline in the U.S.A. is now not as severe as it formerly was and overall declines may be slowing. Available at: https://www.iucnredlist.org/species/22718591/152502644
