Animals

__**Endangered Animals**__ In 2010, there are 16,306 endangered animals. This means that these animals are very close to becoming extinct. Once an animal is extinct, there will be no more left, and they will never come back. One in four mammals, one in eight birds, and one third of all amphibians are endangered.
