More than one in five of the world\u2019s reptile species are threatened with extinction, researchers have determined in a new paper<\/a> that marks the culmination of more than 20 years of slow-going research. On top of facing human-caused threats to their survival, the scaled creatures have fallen victim to bias in conservation priorities.<\/p>\n
Conservationists with limited resources have had to play catch-up in their efforts to assess threats to turtles, crocodiles, lizards, snakes, and tuatara<\/a> (the last in an ancient lineage of reptiles that roamed the Earth with dinosaurs). Similar comprehensive assessments for birds, mammals, and amphibians (all categorized as tetrapods, or four-limbed vertebrates) were completed over a decade ago. <\/p>\n
Why has there been a dearth of data for reptiles in particular? They just haven\u2019t gotten the same sort of sympathy from funders as their fluffier counterparts, say authors of the new paper published today in the journal Nature.<\/em><\/p>\n
\n\u201cThere\u2019s just been a lot more focus on some of the more furry or feathery species\u201d<\/q><\/aside>\n<\/div>\n\u201cReptiles to many people are not charismatic, and there\u2019s just been a lot more focus on some of the more furry or feathery species of vertebrates for conservation,\u201d Bruce Young, co-lead of the study, <\/em>said on a press call. \u201cBut through persistence, we were able to find the funding needed to complete the study.\u201d<\/p>\n
With the new global assessment of reptiles, conservationists have a clearer picture of which species need the most help. The iconic King Cobra, for instance, surprised researchers. It\u2019s currently ranked as \u201cvulnerable\u201d by the International Union for Conservation of Nature (IUCN). But without this new assessment, conservationists wouldn\u2019t have known that \u201cit\u2019s very close to extinction,\u201d Neil Cox, another co-lead of the study, said on the call. The study also discovered that 31 reptile species have gone extinct already.<\/p>\n
To figure out how endangered reptiles are around the world, scientists started their assessment of 10,196 species back in 1996. The bulk of the data, however, came from 48 separate workshops that were convened between 2004 to 2019. During the workshops, reptile experts pulled together information that was vital for determining different species\u2019 extinction risk. But since it\u2019s taken so long to do all this, about 15 percent of the data they collected can already be considered outdated. <\/p>\nWhat\u2019s more, their assessments came up inconclusive for nearly 15 percent of the species because there wasn\u2019t enough information about their distribution, population status, or threats faced. That\u2019s a problem across conservation efforts<\/a> for all sorts of animals because this type of research takes a lot of time and money. <\/p>\n
Over 20,000 species on the Red List of threatened species<\/a> are considered \u201cdata deficient.\u201d That list is put together by the IUCN, which led the newly published research on reptiles alongside environmental organizations NatureServe and Conservation International.<\/p>\n
Reptiles, amphibians, mammals, and birds are all in the same rocky boat when it comes to the threat of extinction. Roughly 41 percent of amphibians, 25 percent of mammals, and 14 percent of birds are categorized as either vulnerable, endangered, or critically endangered on the IUCN\u2019s Red List. <\/p>\n
While this new research has determined that an alarming 21 percent of reptile species \u2014 1,829 individual species \u2014 face the risk of extinction, this could very well be an underestimate. With biodiversity generally in decline across the globe, species with outdated assessments are likely in even more dire straits now, the study suggests. <\/p>\n
That includes turtles and crocodiles, which face some of the highest risk of extinction among reptile species and were more likely to have outdated assessments. About 58 percent of turtles and 50 percent of crocodiles were found to be threatened with extinction. <\/p>\n
Complicating matters, the study was limited to threats faced over the next ten years or three generations (whichever is longest), which meant that longer-term threats like climate change were difficult to quantify.<\/p>\n
\nThe biggest danger turtles and crocodiles face is hunting<\/q><\/aside>\n<\/div>\nTargeted efforts are needed for some of the most vulnerable species that face unique threats. The biggest danger turtles and crocodiles face, for instance, is hunting (which includes the animal \/ pet trade). But the biggest threats to all reptiles, the researchers found, are agriculture, urban development, and logging \u2014 since a majority of reptile species can be found in forests. That means that broader conservation efforts for other forest-dwelling creatures \u2014 including birds, mammals, and amphibians \u2014 can go a long way in helping out their unfortunately less-beloved reptile neighbors.<\/p>\n<\/div>\n
