Best Answer

The most important and tiny species is the Penguin.

I have heard that many of them are in serious trouble, including:

Polar bears - considered an aquatic species

Dolphins - they get caught in fishing nets

Whales - are still being hunted and killed despite new laws

Manatees - they get run over by motor boat propellers

Salmon - loss of spawning habitat

Most all commercial fish - like tuna, etc., from over-fishing

Additional Info:

Would like to add that Sea lions and Sharks are also at a higher risk.

Addition; !9 of the 22 spicies of Albatross are endangered because of fishing boats and floating plastic refuse. The Amsterdam Albatross has less than 24 breeding pairs left. They only produce 1 egg every 2 years.

Why is this animal becoming extinct?

First of all, what animal is it? But anyway whatever animal it is, people are shooting it or killing it. If its a water animal that lives in the ocean, maybe the pollution in the sea or lake is floating and they think it is a play toy and they eat it. Its hard to explain if you don't have what kind of animal it is. Really everthing is going extinct in this world.
