From about 1996, the Tasmanian Devil has been threatened by a fatal form of cancer called "Devil Facial Tumour Disease (DFTD)" which has killed more than 90% of adults in high density areas and 45% of adults in medium to low density areas resulting in an "Endangered" classification. Since then, the Threatened Species Scientific Advisory Committee has recommended moving the Tasmanian Devil up the "Endangered Species" list. A number of groups have combined to fund, study, analyse and come up with a cure for DFTD.


Are jaguars on endangered species list?

Yes, the Jaguar is considered endangered. The Jaguar is listed on the IUCN Red List as "near threatened" with the population "decreasing". While the Jaguar is also listed, as "endangered" by the U.S. Fish and Wildlife Services, Endangered Species List. It is also listed with CITES and protected under their Appendix I, which means they can't be traded commercially. For more details, please see sites listed below. Another view: The jaguar is an endangered species in the U.S., but this species has never been common in the northern part of it's range. The jaguar population does seem to be decreasing in areas where it is still fairly common. The species as a whole is considered near threatened, and more must be done to keep the jaguar from having it's status downgraded to endangered throughout it's range.
