No one knows . But with my experience millions of animals all over the world are going through bad times in their lives. Polar Bear are going extinct because of global warming. That's why alot of people are going organic , or taking short showers small things that still help the world.
There are over 750 kinds of endangered species from the huge blue whale to the tiny bees. Rhinos, elephants, most kinds of antelope, deer, and wild cats are endangered. Low risk means that the animal is not threatened one way or the other. Warthogs, wildebeests, and most kinds of giraffes and zebras are at low risk. Vulnerable means that the animal is starting to become threatened. Hippos, ibex, cheetahs, lions, beavers, belugas, walruses, and white rhinos are all vulnerable. Endangered means that the animal has become much more threatened. Tigers, elephants, polar bears, grizzly bears, crocodiles, gorillas, chimpanzees, gibbons, blue whales, sea otters, and Indian rhinos are all endangered. Critically endangered means that the animal is soooooooo endangered that it may become extinct soon. Orangutans, leatherback sea turtles, Florida panthers, snow leopards, giant pandas, Prezwalski's wild horses, and Javan rhinos are all critically endangered. Extinct means that the animal does not live on the earth anymore. Famous dinosaur species such as Tyrannosaurus Rex and Triceratops were from the Cretatous Period. Others like Brachiosaurus and Stegosaurus and Allosaurus were from the Jurassic Period, while Plateosaurus and Ceolophysis roamed the Triassic Period.

this is just a random guess but i think there are around 20,764 animals endangered

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

What was the first endangered animal in the world?

doesn't really work like that. Species have appeared and died out as long as there has been Life on Earth. It really doesn't make sense to try and pick a "first to be endangered". You'd need to add something, like "first to be endangered by human actions" perhaps.


What is the difference between endangered and extinct animals?

Endangered Species are ones that have a very small population and that population is at a greater risk of becoming extinct. Many species that become extinct never make to the endangered species list. Extinct Species are ones that are either known (documented) to be extinct or are so few in population that a recovery is considered highly unlikely even under excellent conditions.
