Hardly! Cattle are very popular as a domesticated animal and are found all over the world and on every continent except Antarctica. However, some breeds of cattle are pronounced as endangered or facing extinction since they are heritage breeds and no longer popular as they were many years ago. However, what breeds are endangered depends on the country in question. For example, in the United Kingdom the Native Aberdeen Angus is considered a rare breed, whereas in Canada the Lincoln Red, Belted Galloway and Red Poll breeds are considered endangered. (In the U.K. the Lincoln Red is only on the Vulnerable list and the latter two are gaining in population status).

Well, the chicken as a whole is not endangered, but certain breeds are. For example, the Campine and the Sumatra are two breeds out of many that are critically endangered. Check out the American Breed Conservancy list website for more endangered poultry and livestock!

Cows are a domesticated animal and as long as man has a need for them, the cow has a fairly safe future. Humans will do all they can to protect that which has become a commodity.

Not really. But African farmers hate bull elephants and lions so much that they shoot them down and sell they ivory and skin.

What do you do if an endangered animals eats your cattle?

The best thing to do is call the authorities in your area , and find out who controls the endangered predators in your area, this is important to you , your livestock, and the endangered animal. You have to deal with it. The endangered animal is a native species in it's native environment. It has the right to exist in it's "home". Unfortunately for you this animals existence hurts your pocketbook, you will have to accept this as "the way things are". Your cattle is a nonnative and overpopulated species and exists outside of nature. The "endangered species" has the legal and moral right to exist as it does. That it's food source happens to be your cattle is really irrelevant. You will either have to deal with this or move your cattle elsewhere. Your only option is to consult your local animal control agencies and report the problem to them then allow them to deal with it. Killing , trapping or interfering with the endangered animal will get you in a lot of (well deserved) trouble. I understand loss of cattle affects your prosperity but you need to respect the environment if you expect to live in the environment.
