Differentiaate between endangered species and threatened species?

Threatened means that the animal is vulnerable to extinction and the population of the animal is declining. (ex: Certain species of whale population are being threatened.) Endangered means that the animal will soon be extinct if nothing is done about it. Some endangered animals are being bred in captivity until their numbers increase enough to be released back in the wild. (ex: Bald Eagles are an endangered species of bird. Pandas are an endangered species of bear.) Extinct means that the animal has completely died out and there aren't any left of this species. (ex: Dinosaurs are an extinct species of reptile. Dodo is an extinct bird.) Here's a visual: Threatened-------------> Endangered---------------> Extinct

How much time must pass before a species is considered extinct?

It actually doesn't matter the length of time. When the last animal of that specific species is dead, the the animal is proven to be extinct. Sometimes animals are thought to be extinct, then are re discovered, as the case of the ivory billed woodpecker in the U.S. It usually takes many years after the last sightings of an animal before it is declared extinct. In some cases the last known animal of a species is in a zoo so when that animal dies the species will be declared extinct. This was the case with the passenger pigeon which was hunted to extinction in the early 20th century. The last passenger pigeon died in the Cincinnati Zoo in 1914.
