The list sometimes overlaps with the species listed under the U.S. Endangered Species Act, such as in the case of the North Atlantic right whale. More than 42,000 of the species on the red list are threatened with extinction, IUCN says.<\/p>\n<p>IUCN uses several categories to describe an animal\u2019s status, ranging from \u201cleast concern\u201d to \u201ccritically endangered.\u201d IUCN typically updates the red list two or three times a year.

The coral is threatened by a tissue loss disease, and its population has shrunk by more than 80% across most of its range since 1990, IUCN said. The IUCN lists more than two dozen corals in the Atlantic Ocean as critically endangered.<\/p>\n<p>Almost half the corals in the Atlantic are \u201cat elevated risk of extinction due to climate change and other impacts,\u201d Beth Polidoro, an associate professor at Arizona State University and red list coordinator for IUCN.<\/p>\n<p>Unsustainable harvesting and poaching have emerged as threats to abalone, which are used as seafood, IUCN said. Twenty of the 54 abalone species in the world are threatened with extinction according to the red list\u2019s first global assessment of the species.<\/p>\n<p>Threats to the abalone are compounded by climate change, diseases and pollution, the organization said.<\/p>\n<p>\u201cThis red list update brings to light new evidence of the multiple interacting threats to declining life in the sea,\u201d said Jon Paul Rodr\u00edguez, chair of the IUCN Species Survival Commission.\n                        <\/p><\/div>\n<blockquote><p><strong><span style=\"color: #ff6600;\">If you liked the article, do not forget to share it with your friends.
