Several different species of Sahara animals are either extinct or endangered and on the edge of extinction. An example would be desert antelope and gazelle which are on the verge of extinction due to loss, over-hunting, and drought. Another would be the Saharan Cheetah which makes it's home in the mountain ranges near the riverbeds, but they are quickly losing their habitats, causing them to be an endangered species.
