    4.15.7 not at risk (none of tlie above)
    The first six of these categories are used by the International Union for the Conservation of Nature and Natural Resources. Their definitions, slightly amended, are as follows.
    Endangered : Breeds in danger of extinction, and whose survival is unlikely if the causal factors continue operating.
    Vulnerable : Breeds likely to move into the Endangered category in the near future if the causal factors continue operating.
    Rare: Breeds with small populations that are not at present Endange red or Vulnerable, but are at risk.
    Indeterminate : Breeds known to be Endangered., Rare or Vulnerable, but where there is not enough information to say which of the three categories is appropriate.
    Out of Danger : Breeds formerly included in one of the above categories, but which are now considered relatively secure because effective conservation measures have been taken or the previous threat to their survival has been removed.
    Insufficiently Known : Breeds that are suspected but not definitely known to belong to any of the above categories, because of lack of information.
