How was the AZE data gathered?
The data gathering process was performed over a period of many months with input from regional experts, as well as experts in the five AZE taxa (mammals, birds, reptiles, amphibians, and conifers) from around the world. The data was verified using existing databases such as the IUCN Red List, BirdLife International’s global database, and the Global Amphibian Assessment. It was also peer-reviewed by local, national, and international experts.
