List of vulnerable birds

As of December 2019, the International Union for Conservation of Nature (IUCN) lists 800 vulnerable avian species.[1] 7.3% of all evaluated avian species are listed as vulnerable. No subpopulations of birds have been evaluated by the IUCN.

Extinct in the wild (EW): 5 species
Critically endangered (CR): 225 species
Endangered (EN): 461 species
Vulnerable (VU): 800 species
Near threatened (NT): 1,017 species
Least concern (LC): 8,427 species
Data deficient (DD): 53 species

Avian species (IUCN, 2019-3)

10,983 extant species have been evaluated
10,930 of those are fully assessed[lower-alpha 1]
9,444 are not threatened at present[lower-alpha 2]
1,486 to 1,539 are threatened[lower-alpha 3]
164 to 183 are extinct or extinct in the wild:
- 159 extinct (EX) species[lower-alpha 4]
- 5 extinct in the wild (EW)
- 19 possibly extinct [CR(PE)]

Vulnerable (VU) species are considered to be facing a high risk of extinction in the wild.

For a species to be assessed as vulnerable to extinction the best available evidence must meet quantitative criteria set by the IUCN designed to reflect "a high risk of extinction in the wild". Endangered and critically endangered species also meet the quantitative criteria of vulnerable species, and are listed separately. See: List of endangered birds, List of critically endangered birds. Vulnerable, endangered and critically endangered species are collectively referred to as threatened species by the IUCN.

Additionally 53 avian species (0.48% of those evaluated) are listed as data deficient, meaning there is insufficient information for a full assessment of conservation status. As these species typically have small distributions and/or populations, they are intrinsically likely to be threatened, according to the IUCN.[2] While the category of data deficient indicates that no assessment of extinction risk has been made for the taxa, the IUCN notes that it may be appropriate to give them "the same degree of attention as threatened taxa, at least until their status can be assessed."[3]

This is a complete list of vulnerable avian species evaluated by the IUCN. Where possible common names for taxa are given while links point to the scientific name used by the IUCN.
