Solution

An endangered species is a species (a population) of animals, plants, or other organisms that is in danger of becoming extinct. This could happen because there are few of that animal left, its predators have grown in number, or the climate that it lives in is changing, or the places it lives in have been destroyed.
Examples:
1) Tiger
2) Polar bear
3) Pacific walrus
4) Magellanic penguin
5) Mountain gorilla
