Least concern (LC): 3,306 species. Data deficient (DD): 872 species. Mammalian species (IUCN, 2020-1) 5850 extant species have been evaluated. 4978 of those are fully assessed a. 3651 are not threatened at present b. 1244 to 2116 are threatened c. 81 to 83 are extinct or extinct in the wild: 81 extinct (EX) species d.
The Cretaceous–Paleogene (K–Pg) extinction event, [ a ] also known as the Cretaceous–Tertiary(K–T)extinction, [ b ] was the mass extinction of three-quarters of the plant and animal species on Earth [ 2 ][ 3 ] approximately 66 million years ago. The event caused the extinction of all non-avian dinosaurs.

Mammals introduced and extinct in the Holocene except Pleistocene/Holocene boundary are included. According to the IUCN Red List 3 of these species are critically endangered, 20 endangered, 15 vulnerable, 20 near threatened and 4 extinct. [1] Some species are identified as indicated below: (A) - Accidental (E) - Extinct
According to the International Union for Conservation of Nature (IUCN), 65 mammal species in the United States are threatened or nearly threatened with extinction. [1] The IUCN has classified each of these species into one of four conservation statuses: near threatened NT, vulnerable VU, endangered EN, and critically endangered CR.
The report concluded that global warming of 2 °C (3.6 °F) over the preindustrial levels would threaten an estimated 5% of all the Earth's species with extinction even in the absence of the other four factors, while if the warming reached 4.3 °C (7.7 °F), 16% of the Earth's species would be threatened with extinction.
Eocene–Oligocene extinction is labeled E– OG. The Eocene–Oligocene extinction event, also called the Eocene-Oligocene transition (EOT) or Grande Coupure (French for "great cut"), is the transition between the end of the Eocene and the beginning of the Oligocene, an extinction event and faunal turnover occurring between 33.9 and 33.4 ...
