(iii) Vulnerable species Species whose population is decreasing and are facing a risk of moving into the endangered category. e.g, blue sheep, Asiatic elephant, Gangetic dolphin etc.
(iv) Rare species Species with a small population are rare. These can become vulnerable or endangered if the negative factors affecting them continue to operate. e.g., Himalayan brown bear, wild Asiatic buffalo, desert fox and hornbill etc.
