* Separate populations of a species listed both as Endangered
and Threatened are tallied once, for the endangered population
only. Those species are the argali, chimpanzee, leopard, Stellar
sea-lion, gray wolf, piping plover, roseate tern, green sea turtle,
saltwater crocodile, and olive ridley sea turtle. For the purposes
of the Endangered Species Act, the term "species" can mean a
species, subspecies, or distinct vertebrate population. Several
entries also represent entire genera or even families.
** Eleven U.S. animal species and five foreign species
have dual status.
