The 2002 Audubon WatchList

You can view information about the ecology, identification, and conservation of each member of the WatchList as well as the threats to each of these species. Species are grouped by family and listed alphabetically within each group. To select a species, first click on the family from the options below. The color before the species name will indicate if the species is on the red list or yellow list. A printable list of WatchList species is also available in taxonomic order within geographic region (requires Adobe Acrobat Reader v4.0 or higher). Note: The population estimates reported in the upper right corner of each WatchList species account and on the summary .pdf have been updated with new information in April, 2005.
