When a species or animal is endangered, it means that they are disappearing fast or have a very small population - not large enough to survive.
The biggest threat facing many animals is human activity, as the people that live in our world today are responsible for destroying their habitats as well as hunting and poaching them.
It is people that are also responsible for pollution and global warming, causing climate change and effecting the animals' environment.
The IUCN (International Union for the Conservation of Nature and Natural Resources) have compiled a 'Red List' - a guide to how endangered a species is - where animals are measured on a scale from 'Least Concern' to the worst, 'Extinct'.
