Notes

This database is designed to document the endangered and extinct species of the world. It consists of a table or spreadsheet with the following categories of information: scientific name, classification (e.g., mammal, reptile, amphibian, insect, etc.), habitat (rainforest, ocean, etc.), and cause of endangerment or extinction. The following 10 species are included:

1. Giant Panda (Ailuropoda Melanoleuca): Mammal, Bamboo Forests, Habitat Loss/Fragmentation

2. Amur Leopard (Panthera Pardus Orientalis): Mammal, Temperate Forests, Habitat Loss/Fragmentation

3. Tiger (Panthera Tigris): Mammal, Tropical and Subtropical Forests, Habitat Loss/Fragmentation

4. Leatherback Turtle (Dermochelys Coriacea): Reptile, Oceans, Plastic Pollution/Bycatch

5. Snow Leopard (Panthera Uncia): Mammal, Mountain Habitats, Poaching/Habitat Loss

6. Great White Shark (Carcharodon Carcharias): Fish, Oceans, Bycatch/Habitat Loss

7. Southern Cassowary (Casuarius Casuarius): Bird, Tropical Rainforests, Hunting/Habitat Loss

8. Javan Rhinoceros (Rhinoceros Sondaicus): Mammal, Tropical Rainforests, Poaching/Habitat Loss

9. Caribbean Monk Seal (Monachus Tropicalis): Mammal, Oceans, Habitat Loss/Overfishing

10. Chinese Paddlefish (Psephurus Gladius): Fish, Yangtze River, Pollution/Overfishing

These 10 species are chosen as representatives of the many endangered and extinct species of the world. It is essential that we protect and preserve these species to ensure the health and sustainability of the planet.
