Because many hinters are killing them for there beautiful fur to use as belts and such. Also many hunters are killing them because they fear they are going to kill off there crops and livestock. And lastly many people now fancy them as PETS!
IT'S SICKENS ME!
Habitat loss because there are too many trees are being cut.
Pochers hunt them for their pelts, Farmers kill them off to protect their livestock, and others keep them as pets! ITS SICK!
Its mostly because Morrocan,Algerian and other Arab countries don't have rules stopping hunters from killing. But they have strict rule on killing birds for some odd reason.
The African leopard is not an endangered species. Check IUCN Redlist for sub species of endangered leopards.
No. Black panthers are black specimens of the leopard or jaguar, and neither species are endangered.
Since the" black panther" is only a color phase of the leopard or jaguar, it cannot be classified at all. The leopard for the most part is in no serious trouble, some races are threatened, and the jaguar has managed to stay off the endangered lists. The Amur leopard is listed as critically endangered.
The leopard as a species is not endangered, but some races are. See IUCN Redlist for list of endangered leopard races.
There is only one species of leopard, Panthera pardus. There are, however, nine subspecies of leopard, and although some are doing quite well, others are endangered. Here is a list of the subspecies and their conservation status: African Leopard: Least Concern Indian Leopard: Near Threatened Javan Leopard: Critically Endangered Arabian Leopard: Critically Endangered Amur Leopard: Critically Endangered North Chinese Leopard: Endangered Persian Leopard: Endangered Indo-Chinese Leopard: Vulnerable Sri Lankan Leopard: Endangered
The only leopard subspecies endangered is the rare Amur leopard, of which around 30 survive.
The clouded leopard is becoming endangered because of the lack of habitat.
The black panther is not a separate species. It is either a melanistic (black) morph of the leopard or of the jaguar. Neither species, overall, is considered endangered although some subspecies or local populations are.
As a species, leopards are not endangered. But many subspecies are. See IUCN Redlist for list of endangered leopard sub species.
No, it is not endangered. There is actually no particular species called the 'black panther.' It is either a melanistiic (black) form of the leopard or a melanistic jaguar. Neither species is currently endangered,
The snow leopard was first put on the endangered species list was in 1972.
"Black panthers" are merely melanistic (black) specimens of the leopard (Panthera Pardus) or the jaguar (Panthera Onca). There is no such thing as a "black panther" species, and, as neither the leopard or jaguar is endangered at the moment, neither are the black members of those species. ------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------ Black panthers are more of a genus than of a species. So you've gotten that part right, but don't say that black panthers don't exist, because they ARE real.
Yes.
