An endemic species is one only found in one region on the whole planet and nowhere else. Like ocelots are only found in southern Texas and South America. Dogs, however, are not; there are dogs EVERYWHERE... name as many endemic species as you can. It's for my science class so thank you for helping me!

It would be easier to name the pandemic species, and rule by exclusion... the only pandemic species I am aware of are cats, dogs, and humans...

Anyway...

Otters (coastal California)
California Condors (nearly extinct - parts of California)
All whale species - none are pandemic
Manatees
Kangaroos
Koalas
Tasmanian Devils
Wolverines
Beavers
Prairie Doges
Wombats
Elephant Seals
Monarch Butterflies
Dungenous Crab
Giant Sequoias and all other sequoias (Pacific West)
Passenger Pigeon, (now extinct)
Mountain Gorillas.
Cheetahs
Lions
Tigers
Bears
Oh my
Elephants, Asiatic and African
Zebras
Single Humped Camels
Double Humped Camels
Llamas
Leopards
Dung beetles
American Bison (buffalo)

Lots more...

Endemic means they are original of a region and not imported.
Kangaroos are endemic in Australia, dingos are not, they originated from dogs taken there which became wild.

I think your definition of endemic is wrong. It means native.
