Home›Reptiles›Conservation Status›Near ThreatenedBrowse ByNear ThreatenedConservation status groups species by how close each one is to extinction, using the category scale most conservation scientists rely on, running from least concern through near threatened, vulnerable, endangered and critically endangered, to extinct in the wild or extinct. Assessments come from bodies such as the IUCN Red List and are re-checked as a species population changes. A species with no current assessment recorded here is not shown as any of these categories.FactsNear ThreatenedSourcesComments (0)Reader Challenges (0)FactsComparisonReproductive ModeWell-attestedOviparous (Egg-Laying) 1Near ThreatenedFilter Results4 entriesCommon GroupAllGeckos (1)Lizards (Lacertilia) (2)Snakes (Serpentes) (1)Everyday GroupAllGeckos (1)Lizards (Lacertilia) (2)Snakes (Serpentes) (1)HabitatAllDesert (1)Grassland (1)Tropical Rainforest (1)Xeric Shrubland (1)Where It LivesAllAfrica (1)Argentina (1)Australia (1)Belgium (1)Colombia (1)Ecuador (1)Mexico (3)North America (1)Norway (1)Poland (1)South Africa (1)Spain (1)DietAllCarnivore (2)Herbivore (1)Insectivore (1)System (Realm)AllMarine (1)Terrestrial (3)Living or ExtinctAllYes (4)Relationship to PeopleAllKept as Pets (2)CITES AppendixAllAppendix II (2)Appendix III (1)Not Listed (2)NatureServe RankAllG4 Apparently Secure (1)EcosystemAllGulf of California (1)Mojave Desert (1)Sonoran Desert (1)TaxonomyAllCarphodactylidae (1)Helodermatidae (1)Pythonidae (1)Sauromalus (1)Show ResultsBrowseCompareSelect all 4Ball PythonNear ThreatenedGila MonsterNear ThreatenedNorthern Leaf-tailed GeckoNear ThreatenedSauromalus sleviniNear ThreatenedSources1.
