How many endangered species are there?

How many types endangered species are there in the world?

  • Answer:

    That depends on the list you are using. In the USA, each state has a list, the USF&WS has a list, and there are international lists, such as CITES (covering international trade) and the IUCN list. The lists vary. The bog turtle is listed as endangered on some state lists, not at all on others, threatened on the federal list, and endangered according to IUCN. I suspect that all or almost all endangered species are being cultured in captivity somewhere, by someone.
