Best Answer

An endangered species is a population of organisms which is in danger of becoming extinct throughout all or a significant portion of its range. A species is considered threatened if it is likely to become endangered in the near future throughout all or most of its range. Another term you might see is candidate species. This is a species that fits the definition of either endangered or threatened, but it has not officially been added to the list. The wood thrush range is widely distributed across the central and eastern U.S. It has a cinnamon brown color on its wings and back, and is white with black spots on its underside. The male wood thrush has one of the most beautiful songs of birds in North America. Wood thrushes are solitary birds, and will defend a territory that ranges from 800 to 28000 square meters! It prefers deciduous, upland mesic forests that have a moderately-dense shrub layer. The Wood Thrush has become a symbol of the decline of Songbirds in eastern North America, having its population decline by 43 percent since the 1960s. The threats both come from its North American breeding grounds and Central American wintering grounds. Forest fragmentation in North America has resulted in both increased nest predation and increased cowbird parasitism, significantly reducing their reproductive success. Threats: Forest fragmentation in North American forests results in increased nest predation, increased cowbird parasitism, and continuing destruction of primary forest in Central America eliminates preferred Wood Thrush wintering habitat.
