There were once three basic types of grey whales, one was the Western Pacific Grey Whale. Back in 1712, whaling became a popular sport, and has been ever since. Overkilling, is the number one reason.

Giant clams have adapted to their environment by developing a symbiotic relationship with zooxanthellae algae, which provide them with essential nutrients through photosynthesis.

What endangered animals live in temperate rainforests?

The rain forest is a region rich in biodiversity. Richer than any other biological region of our planet. However, it is not the largest biological region, nor is it protected in many areas in which it grows. Thus there are innumerable candidates which would fit your question. Many of these species are unknown to science, and may vanish before being documented. In South America Jaguar, some sloths, some cayman, many monkeys, birds, and innumerable insects (which sadly merit little of our concern) are endangered. In the rainforest's of Western Africa, Forest Elephant, Western and Eastern Gorilla, Brnaby, chimpanzee, Okapi, (once again) many insects, and many others are endangered. In the rain forests of Northern Australia, Cassowary, tree Kangaroo, birds of paradise, and some Adina are endangered. In Asia, Lions, Tigers, Asian Elephant, Orangutan, Clouded and Brennan Clouded Leopards, Rhino (of two species), and many other species are all endangered. Many of these species are Critically Endangered, and all require our aid to survive. About a specie disappears everyday in a rainforest when they are not even discovered yet! In any rainforest each tree may have it's species of wildlife that exist only on that tree. Any tree cut down or fallen may result in the extinction of those species.
