Solution

The correct option is C Endangered
Endangered species is a species facing a high risk of extinction in the near future due to the decrease in its habitat, excessive predation or poaching.
Vulnerable species are those which are sufficient but can become endangered in near future.
Rare species are species with naturally small populations, either localised or thinly scattered.
Threatened species include critically endangered, endangered and vulnerable.
Thus, the correct answer is option C.
