About

Red List Animals is an educational website dedicated to helping readers understand extinct species and the major drivers that push wildlife toward extinction. We publish beginner-friendly guides that summarize key facts, historical context, and conservation lessons in a clear, accessible way.

What you’ll find here

Species guides (e.g., mammals, birds, reptiles, amphibians, fish, invertebrates)
Explainers on extinction drivers (habitat loss, overexploitation, disease, invasives, climate change, pollution)
Prehistoric life background guides for broader context
