Animals in Philippines — page 2
53 mammal species are recorded in Philippines in this dataset, 16 of them in a threatened Red List category. Philippines 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 Philippines.
They belong to 12 families, the best represented being Muridae (28), Soricidae (7), Pteropodidae (5). By Red List category: 2 Critically Endangered, 8 Endangered, 6 Vulnerable, 2 Near Threatened, 25 Least Concern, 10 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 Philippines is missing here, and a wide-ranging animal is counted in every country it crosses. All 53 of them have a full written profile.
