Threatened species are any species which are vulnerable to
extinction in the near future. Species that are threatened are sometimes
characterised by the population dynamics measured through biomass related
to population. This quantitative metric is one method of evaluating the degree
of endangerment.
Threatened: a plant or animal species that has been categorized by the
IUCN Red List as vulnerable, endangered, or critically endangered.

Indian birds in the categories of Critically Endangered, Endangered,
