The species recovery score is a 0%–100% scale, with 0% being the species is extinct or extinct in the wild and 100% being fully recovered. [40] In addition, the Green Status also classifies previous and future conservation impacts with the Green Scores of Conservation Dependency, Conservation Gain, Conservation Legacy, and Recovery Potential.

The decline was "apparent regardless of habitat type" and could not be explained by "changes in weather, land use, and habitat characteristics". The authors suggested that not only butterflies, moths and wild bees appear to be in decline, as previous studies indicated, but "the flying insect community as a whole". [1] [4] [52] [53] [54]
The International Union for Conservation of Nature (IUCN) lists 35 extinct species, 146 possibly extinct species, two extinct in the wild species, and one possibly extinct in the wild species of amphibians. [1] [2]
Extirpated from the wild in the early 1970s and reintroduced in 1998. [30] Texas red wolf: Canis rufus rufus: Central Texas to southern Louisiana Extinct in the wild by 1980 and introduced (in lieu of the extinct subspecies) to eastern North Carolina in 1987.

Bee pollination is important both ecologically and commercially, and the decline in wild bees has increased the value of pollination by commercially managed hives of honey bees. The analysis of 353 wild bee and hoverfly species across Britain from 1980 to 2013 found the insects have been lost from a quarter of the places they inhabited in 1980. [6]
