List of threatened mammals of Brazil information


The marsh deer (Blastocerus dichotomus) is a vulnerable species according to ICMBio and IUCN.

There are more than 700 species of mammals in Brazil,[1] and according to the Chico Mendes Institute for Biodiversity Conservation and Brazil's Ministry of the Environment, about 110 species and subspecies are threatened and one is extinct.[2][3] The Brazilian definition of "threatened species" uses the same criteria and categories established by IUCN.[4] Among the 12 mammal orders which occur in Brazil, eleven have threatened species, except Lagomorpha (which has only one species in Brazil, the Brazilian cottontail).[1][3] Although the rodents have been the most diverse order of mammals, the order with most species on this list is the Primates (34 species).[3][4]

This list of threatened species was published in Diário Oficial da União, on December 17, 2014.[3] Even though some species have been removed from the list, (for instance, the humpback whale), the number of threatened species has increased in comparison with the former list (which had had 69 species).[4] The Brazilian tapir, the white-lipped peccary, the short-eared dog and many rodents have been included in the list. Many of them are just regionally threatened.[4] In spite of using the same criteria, ICMBio list often shows a different conservation status than IUCN.[4] That is because the assessments were done at different times by different researchers.[4]

Most Brazilian mammals are considered to be vulnerable.[3][4] In contrast with the former list, one species is considered extinct (Vespucci's rodent) and two might be extinct in Brazil (black-shouldered opossum and candango mouse; "probably extinct" - PEx).
