الأنواع في خطر الانقراض، هي مجموعة من الكائنات الحية عرضة لخطر الانقراض إما لقلة أعدادها، أو لأنها مهددة بسبب التغيرات البيئية أو معاملات الإفتراس. ويمكن أن يكون خطر الانقراص بسبب نقص المواد الغذائية والمياه بسببة إزالة الغابات. وقد قام الاتحاد الدولي للحفاظ على الطبيعة (IUCN بحساب نسبة الأنواع المهددة بالانقراض وهي 40% من جميع الكائنات الموجودة في عينة الأنواع التي تم تقييمها في عام 2006. (ملحوظة: the IUCN groups all threatened species for their summary purposes.) ويوجد في كثير من الدولقوانين توفر الحماية للأنواع المعتمدة على الحفظ: على سبيل المثال، منع صيد|الصيد، وضع القيود على تطوير الأراضي وانشاء المحميات. وهناك أنواع قليلة فقط مدرجة في قائمة الأنواع المهددة بالانقراض ويجرى العمل على ضمها للقائمة أو اصدار قانون لحمياتها. ويوجد أنواع أكثر قد انقرضت، أو في طريقها للانقراض ولم يعلن عنها.

Endangered species under the IUCN Red List refers to a specific category of threatened species, and may include critically endangered species.

IUCN Red List of Threatened Species uses the term endangered species as a specific category of imperilment, rather than as a general term. Under the IUCN Categories and Criteria, endangered species is between critically endangered and vulnerable. Also critically endangered species may also be counted as endangered species and fill all the criteria

The more general term used by the IUCN for species at risk of extinction is threatened species, which also includes the less-at-risk category of vulnerable species together with endangered and critically endangered. IUCN categories include:

• Extinct: the last remaining member of the species has died, or is presumed beyond reasonable doubt to have died. Examples: Thylacine, Dodo, Passenger Pigeon, Tyrannosaurus, Caribbean Monk Seal, Dimetrodon
• Extinct in the wild: captive individuals survive, but there is no free-living, natural population. Examples: Alagoas Curassow
• Critically endangered: faces an extremely high risk of extinction in the immediate future. Examples: Arakan Forest Turtle, Javan Rhino, Brazilian Merganser, Gharial
• Endangered: faces a very high risk of extinction in the near future. Examples: Blue Whale, Bonobo, Giant Panda, Snow Leopard, African Wild Dog, Tiger, three species of Albatrosses, Crowned Solitary Eagle, Markhor, Dhole, Rangas,
• Vulnerable: faces a high risk of extinction in the medium-term. Examples: Cheetah, Gaur, Lion, Sloth Bear, Wolverine, Manatee, Polar Bear, African Golden Cat
• Conservation Dependent: The following animal is not severely threatened, but the animal must depend on conservation programs. Examples: Spotted Hyena, Leopard Shark, Black Caiman
• Near Threatened: may be considered threatened in the near future. Examples: Blue-billed Duck, Solitary Eagle, Small-clawed Otter , Maned Wolf, Tiger Shark.
• Least Concern: no immediate threat to the survival of the species. Examples: Nootka Cypress, Wood Pigeon, Harp Seal
