Yes. There are five endangered species now. Twelve are not endangered.
Critically Endangered. Example: Amur leopard, around 35-50 in the wild.
Threatened animals are ones that are legally listed as susceptible to becoming endangered - the animals are becoming more rare because of attributable factors determined by scientific studies. Species of concern is a species that may sometime in the future become threatened but that requires more study. More information about this is: They are species, populations and ecological communities that are considered by the NSW Scientific Committee to be at risk of extinction in the immediate to medium-term future in NSW. Together this information is described as 'threatened'.

No, the pygmy loris is listed as vulnerable on the IUCN red list but could become endangered in the future if their habitat (forests) are destroyed.
If we keep on harming the enviornment, then yes, some animal species could become threatened, endangered, or maybe even extinct!
The desert tortoise has the official status of 'threatened' but not endangered at this time (2014). If populations continue to decline, they could become endangered in the future, however.
Snowy owls are currently classified as a species of "Least Concern" on the IUCN Red List, which means they are not considered endangered. However, they do face threats such as habitat loss and climate change which could impact their populations in the future.
the definition of endangered species is species who are close to extinction, or dying out; in the risk of extinction this is my personal definitionWhen an animals numbers become too low to sustain a viable population, it becomes an endangered species.
An endangered species is a species of plants or animals that is at risk of becoming extinct in the near future. This could be due to factors such as habitat loss, climate change, poaching, or pollution. Conservation efforts are often made to try to protect and increase the population of endangered species.
