the only one i can think of at the moment is the eagle.
The Endangered Species Act was passed in 1973. It was passed to protect species that were on the brink of extinction. Many animals have been placed on this, few have been removed. The Bald Eagle is considered to be a symbol of this Law's success! Flying High 5500 breeding pairs in th lower 48 states!
Different shark species landed on the endangered species list at different times. Some species of critically endangered sharks include the ground shark, dogfish, and the angel shark.
Humans have a large responsibility to other creatures, we have the technology, intelligence, and research available to us that can save endangered species. Moreover, human beings have played a large role in the demise and endangerment of many of the endangered and extinct species. It is important to take care of and conserve ours and their habitats. There is actually an Endangered Species Act (1973), Wilderness Act, Endangered Species Conservation Act (1969), and Endangered Species Preservation Act (1966) each had been amended to meet criteria so it would not jeopardize the plant and animal life. That is why today we have the Wildlife Reserves and National Parks to minimize conflict with recreational fisheries and other species.
No, in fact some have been removed from the Endangered Species List, or de-listed, at recovered numbers, the Bald Eagle is an example of this. I believe there are about 20 other species that have been de-listed due to their recovery numbers and breeding projections.
doesn't really work like that. Species have appeared and died out as long as there has been Life on Earth. It really doesn't make sense to try and pick a "first to be endangered". You'd need to add something, like "first to be endangered by human actions" perhaps.
In the 70's...Has since been removed from the list.
Pandas have been listed as endangered because people have been hunting them and they are close to extinction.

A subspecies of the brown bear, the species is listed as 'Least Concern" by the IUCN. Not endangered.
No. As of 2013, Koalas are not an endangered species, nor have they ever been endangered. There is a great deal of misinformation on the Internet about the status of the koala.
