Endangered Species
Definition of Endangered Species as it relates to Animals, Zoo Animals, Primates
Endangered Species refers to animals that are at risk of becoming extinct due to factors such as habitat loss, pollution, climate change, and human activities. This category includes a wide variety of animals, from primates like gorillas and orangutans to zoo animals such as African elephants and Sumatran tigers. These species are often the focus of conservation efforts aimed at preserving their populations and protecting their habitats. Despite these efforts, many endangered species remain critically threatened, with new species added to the list each year due to ongoing threats and changing environmental conditions.
