A critically endangered species is a species that is in immediate risk of extinction. Currently there are 1821 plants and 2129 animals in this endangered category. The list of wildlife that is critically endangered is so extensive that it would take hours to list every species. The IUCN website lists all endangered species and is a great tool for understanding the threat of extinction and the impact it will have on our world.
