Animals in Thailand — page 2
53 mammal species are recorded in Thailand in this dataset, 25 of them in a threatened Red List category. Thailand 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 Thailand.
They belong to 23 families, the best represented being Sciuridae (8), Felidae (6), Muridae (6). By Red List category: 1 Extinct, 5 Critically Endangered, 10 Endangered, 10 Vulnerable, 3 Near Threatened, 24 Least Concern.
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 Thailand is missing here, and a wide-ranging animal is counted in every country it crosses. All 53 of them have a full written profile.
