An extinct species is a species that is at risk but is not yet endangered. True or false

False

Explanation:

Extinction means that there is not one of those animals to roam the earth right now. Think of the dodo bird, it had gone extinct due to poachers killing them all, which means that the dodo bird is extinct. There is two types of endangered, critically endangered or just endangered. critically endangered is there is less than 500 roaming the earth right now they are in great threat of going extinct. Endangered is there there is more than 5000 roaming the earth, but 5000 is not very much speaking of the fact that maybe 10,000 years ago this animals population was 100,000. So this statement is false because they have two different meanings.

I hope this helps
