What has caused the harp seal to be endangered?

User Avatar

Asked by Wiki User

There are 28 subspecies of Seals listed by the IUCN Red List. Their status ranges from "data deficient" to critically endangered" with the population trends decreasing.

However, the Harp Seal is listed, but not as "endangered". It is posted with a status of "least concern", and it's listed population trend is "increasing". They are posted with a species review requested for reassessment within the next 10 years, mainly due to environmental factors.

The Harp Seal is not listed at all, on the U.S. Fish and Wildlife Species Endangered Species List. For more details, please see sites listed below.

There are increasing concerns, however, that harp seal pups have suffered mass mortality due to global warming.The List of endangered Species is not set in stone; it is dynamic, Constantly changing due to animal populations that increase or decrease over time.
