The "Red List" is generated, and maintaned by the IUCN, (International Union for the Conservation of Nature). They re-evaluate every species on the list, every 5 years to see wether it is threatened and to what degree. See website listed below. The Endangered Species List is generated and maintaned by the FWS, (U.S. Fish & WildLife Services), and NMFS, (National Marine Fisheries Services). The Endangered Species Act of 1973. This list is mainly involved in species in and around the U.S. See website listed below.
