"Peligro De Extinción" (English: Danger Of Extinction) is a Latin pop song by Puerto Rican reggaetón recording artist Ivy Queen, from her eighth studio album, Musa (2012). It was composed by Queen, Francisco Saldaña, and Víctor Delgado, produced by Noriega alongside the help of Predikador and released as the lead single off the album on June 19, 2012. The recording gained mainly positive to mixed reviews from critics, many praising the use of Edison Rey's accordion in the song. Lyrically, the song talks about how she doesn't want to be in danger of extinction, and that if there are no Romeos to sing to Juliets that the Juliets will take the role of the Romeos.

The song is a mixture of reggaetón, cumbia, vallenato to create a new type of Latin pop sound. It reached number eighteen on the Billboard Latin Rhythm Airplay chart and number twenty-one on the Billboard Latin Rhythm Digital Songs chart. The song also managed a week on the Billboard Tropical Songs chart, at number eighty-four. The song's accompanying music video was directed by Marlon Peña and filmed in Miami, Florida on August 18, 2012. It was released on September 28, 2012. Queen performed the song at the 2012 Los Angeles LGBT pride parade. The song was included at number thirty-eight on Tr3s' Top 100 of 2012.

After the success of her 2007 effort Sentimiento, which would be certified Platinum by the United States Recording Industry Association of America (RIAA), a substantial live album was distributed by Machete in 2008. This would lead up to Queen signing with the label in April 2010 as the label celebrated its fifth anniversary. The record signing, described as a 360 deal, includes profit sharing in tours, sponsorships and merchandising. Ivy Queen was previously signed to a distribution deal with Univision Records, which in turn was acquired by Machete's parent company Universal Music Latin Entertainment in 2008. President of Universal Music Latino and Machete, Walter Kolm, commented in a press release "It's a privilege to have Ivy Queen apart of over artistic roster. Ivy is an extraordinary woman with incomparable talent, and she's number one in her genre. We're happy to be able to work with her on her new album as well as future projects". "I'm very proud to be a part of Machete Music. They are a young, vibrant company that has created a name for itself in Latin music in the United States and the world. They are a strong and important company that has been recognized for nurturing their artists’ creative talents," said Ivy Queen, regarding the partnership. However even with all this, it was reported that Queen had signed with Siente Music in early 2012.
