Here are some reasons:
- We hunt these animals illegally (which is also called poaching)
- We have been cutting down the trees of the animal's habitat
- There is no food for these animals because no animals have any homes because of the reason above
- Some people hunt these animals to use their skin for fur coats and accessories
I hope these reasons help you!

Are cheetahs endangered?
Cheetahs are considered "vulnerable", not endangered, by the IUCN.The possibility exists that cheetahs could becomeendangered, as poachers regularly kill them for their fur.The IUCN Red List has them listed with a status as "Vulnerable" which is in the same category as "threatened", along with endangered, and critically endangered. It is one step below the "endangered" classification. This means the decrease in their population numbers, over their range, doesn't qualify for the listing status of endangered. For more details see sites listed below.Yes cheetahs are endangered animals. People are hunting them down. They are close to being extinct.yes,but we can repopulate them. stop destroying their home.No, but they are killed quite a lot by poachers.EXTREMELYYes Cheetahs are endangered we need to keep them aliveYes, Cheetahs are endangered. There is approximately only 13,000 Cheetahs left in the wild.most cheetahs in the world are so if u ask its a yesyes they are due to poachers which kill them for their skinyes cheetahs are endangeredYes.Cheetahs are endangeredyesyes!noYes. Especially in Asia. Hunting, habitat degradation and fragmentation, desertification, and direct killing of wildlife that the Cheetah preys upon are all factors responsible for the chronic decline of the Cheetah in Asia.The Asiatic Cheetah exists in very low numbers, divided into widely separated populations. Its low density makes it more likely to be affected by a lack of prey through livestock overgrazing and antelope hunting, coupled with direct hunting by humans. Cheetah's were widely hunted by humans for decades and that is the main reason for their drastic decline in numbers.Though the African cheetah is found in more numbers than their asian cousins, they too are threatened due to habitat loss and hunting.The cheetah is currently one step above "endangered". That is classified as "vulnerable".

When were cheetahs put on endangered species list?
Ask a friend!The cheetah as a whole was declared as endangered by the usa as recently as 2008.However the cheetah can definitely be classed as endangered and has been so for a long time. Currently the number of cheetah in the world is estimated at 7500.Cheetah lost most of their weight in the rush to become fast. As such they cannot defend their kills from almost any animal. This means that they cope very badly in reserves with other large mammals. An example of this is south Africa, where the protected area has about 200 cheetah but the rest of south Africa have perhaps another 800.Cheetah live at very low densities everywhere and so it takes a huge reserve to have a viable population (Kruger national park in south Africa is the size of wales but has a total of 200 wild cheetah and cannot support more).Cheetah were once found across Africa Asia southan Europe and America. If you compare this to current numbers they have been endangered for thousands of years.It is only over the last 100 years though that the number of cheetah has crashed. The Asian population numbers 100 or so as does the saharan population.Lots of information I know, but it really isn't a question to be easily answeredjune 1970The cheetah is not on the endangered species list as of now, but is Vulnerable.

Why is the peacock endangered and what is being done about it?
Which species? Well, anyway, the reason any species is endangered is because its numbers were made so low, through humans hunting or destroying their habitat, that they are close to being made extinct.
