The black bear has undergone some loss in its historic range but still occurs in large numbers over a very large range. The habitat is generally secure and there is no clear indication of overall population decline.; L'ours noir a subi certaines pertes dans son aire de répartition historique, mais on le trouve encore en grand nombre dans une très grande aire de répartition. L'habitat est généralement sà»r et il n'y a aucune indication claire de déclin généralisé de la population.

Localized and distributed across the arid grasslands of southern Alberta and southwestern Saskatchewan. Insufficient scientific data on habitat requirements and habitat trends to assign a status.; Cette espèce est localisée et répartie à travers les terres herbeuses arides du Sud de l'Alberta et du Sud-Ouest de la Saskatchewan. Les données scientifiques insuffisantes sur les exigences et les tendances en matière d'habitat ne permettent pas d'assigner un statut à l'espèce.

Sperm whales range widely through the world's oceans and males are found off both coasts of Canada. The worldwide population is reasonably large despite historical large reductions by commercial whaling. Whaling for this species was discontinued in 1972 in Canada.; Le cachalot macrocéphale est vastement répandu dans les océans de la planète, et on rencontre des mà¢les au large des deux cà´tes du Canada. La population mondiale compte un nombre raisonnable d'individus, malgré les diminutions historiques considérables causées par la chasse commerciale. La chasse à cette espèce a été suspendue au Canada en 1972.

Only males migrate to British Columbia from California. Breeding population in California is expanding.; Seuls les mà¢les migrent de la Californie vers la Colombie-Britannique. La population reproductrice en Californie augmente.

Insufficient information to accurately classify the Canadian status of this species.; Nous ne disposons pas de suffisamment d'information pour déterminer avec précision la situation de cette espèce au Canada.

The species is an apex predator adapted to hunting seals on the sea ice and is highly sensitive to overharvest. Although there are some genetic differences among bears from different parts of the Arctic, movement and genetic data support a single designatable unit in Canada. It is useful, however, to report trends by subpopulation because harvest rates, threats, and, hence, predicted population viability, vary substantially over the species' range. Some subpopulations are overharvested and current management mostly seeks the maximum sustainable harvest, which may cause declines if population monitoring is inadequate. Until 2006, some shared subpopulations were subject to harvest in Greenland that was not based on quotas. Population models project that 4 of 13 subpopulations (including approximately 28% of 15,500 polar bears in Canada) have a high risk of declining by 30% or more over the next 3 bear generations (36 years). Declines are partly attributed to climate change for Western Hudson Bay and Southern Beaufort Sea, but are mostly due to unsustainable harvest in KaneBasin and Baffin Bay. Seven subpopulations (about 43% of the total population) are projected to be stable or increasing. Trends currently cannot be projected for 2 subpopulations (29% of the total population). Bears in some subpopulations show declining body condition and changes in denning location linked to decreased availability of sea ice. For most subpopulations with repeated censuses, data suggest a slight increase in the last 10-25 years. All estimates of current population growth rates are based on currently available data and do not account for the possible effects of climate change. The species cannot persist without seasonal sea ice. Continuing decline in seasonal availability of sea ice makes it likely that a range contraction will occur in parts of the species range. Decreasing ice thickness in parts of the High Arctic may provide better habitat for the bears. Although there is uncertainty over the overall impact of climate change on the species' distribution and numbers, considerable concern exists over the future of this species in Canada.

The Sri Lankan population of this taxon, is isolated from the Indian population and is also under severe pressure due to various threats to the habitat. The rate of decline in the population is correlated to habitat loss, which is >50% over 3 generations

Widely distributed and many in number. Since threats to habitat could play a negative role, the taxon is considered Near
