List of Anseriformes by population

{{short description|List of bird species related to the goose}}

{{Birds by population sidebar}}

This is a list of Anseriformes species by global population. While numbers are estimates, they have been made by the experts in their fields.

Anseriformes (Anser being Latin for "goose") is the taxonomic order to which the ducks, geese, swans, and screamers belong. BirdLife International has assessed 166 species; 89 (54% of total species) have had their population estimated. A variety of methods are used for counting waterfowl. For example, in North America, national and sub-national agencies use planes and helicopters to make aerial transects of breeding populations, and extrapolate these counts over the species' known ranges. Methodologies are continuously being refined; thus estimates can be expected to become more accurate over time. Forecasts can be made by studying habitat condition trends and by interviewing local experts.{{cite web | url = http://www.fws.gov/migratorybirds/NewReportsPublications/PopulationStatus/Waterfowl/StatusReport2012_final.pdf | title = Waterfowl Population Status, 2012 | access-date = 2012-12-23 | author = United States Fish and Wildlife Service | date = 20 July 2012 }} For more information on how these estimates were ascertained, see Wikipedia's articles on population biology and population ecology.

The first bird in this list, the crested shelduck, retains a status of Critically Endangered on the IUCN Red List but may in fact be extinct. The last confirmed reporting was in 1964 near Vladivostok. North Korea claimed a sighting in March 1971, but this record is highly suspect. Unconfirmed reports do, however, periodically roll in from Northeast China, giving scientists hope that the last individual has not yet died.{{cite iucn|title=Tadorna cristata|page=e.T22680021A132052989|author=BirdLife International|date=2018|volume=2018|access-date=20 November 2021|doi=10.2305/IUCN.UK.2018-2.RLTS.T22680021A132052989.en}}

To be assessed as Critically Endangered a species must have experienced a decline of at least 80% in the past ten years or three generations, or be projected to decline that much in the future ten years or three generations.{{cite web | url = http://www.iucnredlist.org/static/categories_criteria_3_1#critical | title = V.
