Gentoo penguin NT

This species qualifies as Near Threatened since 2004 because, while some populations have apparently increased, rapid declines in some key populations are suspected to be driving a moderately rapid global population decline.
The total (minimum) population has been estimated at 314,000 pairs.

Lappet-faced vulture VU

This species is classified as Vulnerable since only a small, declining population remains, owing primarily to poisoning and persecution, as well as ecosystem alterations.
The African population is at least 8,000 individuals, and there may be 500 in the Middle East.

Lesser flamingo NT

This species classifis as "near threatened because of a slow population decine due to environmental changes. Global population is estimate between 2,220,000 and 3,240,000 individuals (mainly localised in the rift valley).

Macaroni penguin VU

The Macaroni penguin classifies as vulnerable since 2000 because the global population appears to have declined rapidly over the last three generations (36 years).
The global population is estimate at 9,000,000 pairs.

Rüppel's vulture NT

The species is threatened by habitat loss through agricultural conversion, incidental poisoning, persecution and at least historically, the loss of wild ungulates. The West African population has been heavily exploited for trade, with birds commonly sold in fetish markets.

Sooty Albatross EN

This species qualifies as Endangered owing to a very rapid decline over three generations (90 years), probably owing to interactions with fisheries. However, trends at three sites have been more severe, and the species could be uplisted to Critically Endangered if these trends are found to be more general.
The total annual breeding population is estimated at 13,200 - 14,500 pairs.
At Crozet Island, a population of 2,080 - 2,200 pairs is surveyed. This population declined by 58% between 1980 and 1995, and continues to decline, although at a slower rate. This equates to an 82% decline between 1980 and 2006 !

Wandering Albatross VU

In 1998, the total annual breeding population was estimated at 8,500 pairs (2,000 at Crozet Island), equivalent to c.28,000 mature individuals.
This population decline rapidly. Longline fishing is believed to be a main cause of decline in this species, causing reductions in adult survival and juvenile recruitment, and this threat is ongoing.

Western rockhopper penguin VU

The Western rockhopper penguin classifies as vulnerable since 2008 owing to rapid population declines, which, although they have been ongoing for perhaps a century, appear to have worsened in recent years.
The global population is estimate between 500,000 and 1,000,000 breeding individuals.

African elephant VU

Although elephant populations may at present be declining in parts of their range, major populations in Eastern and Southern Africa, accounting for over two thirds of all known elephants on the continent, have been surveyed,and are currently increasing at an average annual rate of 4.0% per annum. That's why this species is qualify as Near Threatened since 2004 (previous status was "endangered").

Cheetah VU

Cheetah is qualify as vulnerable since 1986 because of a rapid population decline.
The global population is estimate between 9,000 and 12,000 individuals (for 100,000 individuals in 44 african and asian countries in 1900).

Gerenuk "giraffe necked" antelope NT

Qualified as near threatened since 1996, the global population has been estimated at 95,000 individuals. Populations were considered stable in protected areas, but declining elsewhere (50% decline in Kenya since 1970). The ongoing decline is predicted to continue due to hunting and livestock grazing.

Lion VU

Lion is qualify as vulnerable since 1996 because of the rapid population decline (30% decline since 20 years). The global population is estimate between 30,000 and 100,000 individuals.
