Animals in Georgia

12 mammal species are recorded in Georgia in this dataset, 2 of them in a threatened Red List category. Georgia sits in Asia, where 324 species are recorded in total. Every species below is listed because the range description of its IUCN Red List assessment names Georgia.

They belong to 8 families, the best represented being Phocidae (3), Bovidae (2), Cricetidae (2). By Red List category: 1 Critically Endangered, 1 Endangered, 1 Near Threatened, 8 Least Concern, 1 Data Deficient.

These counts come from the text of each assessment rather than from an official country checklist, so a species whose assessment names a region without naming Georgia is missing here, and a wide-ranging animal is counted in every country it crosses. All 12 of them have a full written profile.
