		Endangered species, such as the California condor, are at immediate risk of extinction and probably cannot survive without direct human intervention.

	PROTECTION OF ENDANGERED SPECIES - Kids' Planet -- Defenders of Wildlife
		The Endangered Species Act (ESA) was passed in 1973 in order to protect those plant and animal species that are at risk of becoming extinct.
		Species that receive protection under the ESA are classified into two categories, "Endangered" or "Threatened," depending on their status (how many are left in the wild) and how severely their survival is threatened.
		A species that is listed as Endangered is in danger of becoming extinct throughout a significant portion of its habitat range (the areas where it lives).

	Protecting Threatened and Endangered Species
		The survival of wildlife is jeopardized by the loss of habitat, over-hunting or over-fishing, the introduction of diseases or parasites, attempts to eradicate "pest" species, and the capture of wild animals and fish for the pet trade, research, entertainment, or other industries.
		The Endangered Species Act (ESA) was enacted to preserve endangered and threatened species and the habitats on which they depend for survival.
		Among the international treaties to protect endangered species are the Convention on Trade in Endangered Species of Fauna and Flora, the International Convention on the Regulation of Whales, and the Convention for the Protection and Development of the Marine Environment of the Wider Caribbean Region.
