Threatened species refers to a group of organisms that are at risk of becoming endangered in the near future. These species have declining populations and face threats such as habitat loss, pollution, or overexploitation.
Endangered species are organisms that are at a higher risk than threatened species. They have critically low population numbers and face an imminent threat of extinction.
Habitat loss occurs when the natural environment where organisms live is destroyed or degraded due to human activities like deforestation or urbanization.
Conservation Status: Conservation status refers to the categorization of a species based on its level of endangerment. It helps determine the urgency and extent of conservation efforts needed for that particular species.
