Recovery is the process of restoring species listed under the ESA to the point that they no longer require ESA protections. A recovery plan serves as a road map for species recovery—it lays out where to go and how to get there. Without a plan to organize, coordinate, and prioritize recovery actions, these efforts may be inefficient, ineffective, or...
Recovering threatened and endangered species is a complex and challenging process, but one that offers long-term benefits to the health of our environment and communities. Recovery actions may require: 1. Restoring or preserving habitat. 2. Minimizing or offsetting the effects of actions that harm species. 3. Enhancing population numbers. 4. A comb...

The IUCN Red List Categories and Criteria are intended to be an easily and widely understood system for classifying species at high risk of global extinction. It divides species into nine categories: Not Evaluated, Data Deficient, Least Concern, Near Threatened, Vulnerable, Endangered, Critically Endangered, Extinct in the Wild and Extinct .
The Red List Index (RLI) of species survival for taxonomic groups that have been assessed for the IUCN Red List at least twice.The blue line indicates the overall RLI for all the taxa combined. A value of 1 is equivalent to all species being categorised as Least Concern; a value of zero is equivalent to all species being classified as Extinct.

Jan 12, 2023 · The species range occupies around 42 million hectares encompassing four countries [35, 57], which makes it unlikely that local harvesting may represent a major threat or cause the extinction of the species. Even so, the anaconda hunting program must continue to be evaluated to ensure it sustainability is kept in the long term.
