I suspect this still isn't quite right. I suspect you want rdb_status and
Endangered to be present together on the same Data element, whereas you are
selecting any Placemark that has some Data with @name='rdb_status' and some
Data (perhaps a different Data) with value='Endangered'. If I'm right, you
want:

<xsl:for-each select="Placemark[ExtendedData/Data[@name='rdb_status' and
value='Endangered']]">
