We point out that the entropy of (near) extremal black holes can be interpreted as the entanglement entropy of dual conformal quantum mechanics via AdS{sub 2}/CFT{sub 1}. As an explicit example, we study near extremal Banados-Teitelboim-Zanelli black holes and derive this claim from AdS{sub 3}/CFT{sub 2}. We also analytically compute the entanglement entropy in the two dimensional CFT of a free Dirac fermion compactified on a circle at finite temperature. From this result, we clarify the relation between the thermal entropy and entanglement entropy, which is essential for the entanglement interpretation of black hole entropy.
