Ganges Indian narrow-headed softshell turtle ("Chitra indica"), Indian softshell turtle ("Nilssonia gangetica"), Indian peacock softshell turtle ("N. hurum") and Cantor's giant softshell turtle ("Pelochelys cantorii"; only in the lowermost section of Ganges basin). Most of these are seriously threatened. The river's most famed fauna is the freshwater Ganges river dolphin ("Platanista gangetica gangetica"), which has been declared India's national aquatic animal. This dolphin used to exist in large schools near to urban centres in both the Ganges and Brahmaputra rivers, but is now seriously threatened by pollution and dam construction. Their numbers have now dwindled to a quarter of their numbers
Zoo Tycoon 2: Endangered Species 3D. "Endangered Species" contains 20 brand new animals from various countries and habitats. The expansion focuses on endangered and critically endangered animals like the Orangutan, Javan rhinoceros, Florida panther, and Giant sable antelope. However, other animals are included that are 'lower risk' and 'vulnerable' as well. "Zoo Tycoon 2"'s first expansion, "Endangered Species" updates most of the animal behaviors; basic herding behaviors were added (more advanced herding and pack behavior came out in "") and animals cannot breed with their siblings, parents or grandparents. Animal models and skins are also slightly more realistic than the animals from the original game.
