Wildlife of Iraq
The wildlife of Iraq includes its flora and fauna and their natural habitats. Iraq had lost all of its Asiatic lion, Asiatic cheetah and the now extinct Caspian tigers by the earlier years of the twentieth century. Iraq is rich in wildlife and has many habitats from mountainous Kurdistan region in northern Iraq to the wet marshlands in the south. As of 2001, 7 of Iraq's mammal species and 12 of its bird species are endangered. Endangered species include the northern bald ibis, Persian fallow deer, Sa'udi Arabian dorcas gazelle, and Asiatic cheetah. The Syrian wild ass has become extinct.〔http://www.nationsencyclopedia.com/Asia-and-Oceania/Iraq-ENVIRONMENT.html#ixzz2KYDDfUwB〕
==Iraqi marshes==
The marshes are home to 40 species of bird and several species of fish plus demarcating a range limit for a number of avifauna species. The marshes were once home to millions of birds and the stopover for millions of other migratory birds, including flamingos, pelicans and herons as they traveled from Siberia to Africa. At risk are 40% to 60% of the world's marbled teal population that live in the marshes, along with 90% of the world's population of Basra reed-warbler.〔(【引用サイトリンク】url=http://www.wildlifeextra.com/go/news/good-iraqimarshes.html#cr )〕 Also at risk are the sacred ibis and African darter. A subspecies of the hooded crow known as the Mesopotamian crow is found in this part of southern Iraq.〔C.Michael Hogan. 2009. (Hooded Crow: ''Corvus cornix''. GlobalTwitcher. ) ed. N.Stromberg〕 Seven species are now extinct or near extinction from the marshes, including the Indian crested porcupine, the bandicoot rat and the marsh gray wolf. The draining of the marshes caused a significant decline in bioproductivity; following the Multi-National Force overthrow of the Saddam Hussein regime, water flow to the marshes was restored and the ecosystem has begun to recover.〔U.S. National Aeornautics and Space Administration. 2008〕
The fate of the two species of otter (the Eurasian otter and the smooth-coated otter) which were historically present in the marshes on either side of the border remains unknown.
