The International Union for Conservation of Nature (IUCN) lists 760 endangered or critically mammalian species.
8.6% of all evaluated mammalian species are listed as endangered. The IUCN also lists 86 mammalian subspecies as endangered. Of the subpopulations of mammals evaluated by the IUCN, five species subpopulations have been assessed as endangered.
For a species to be considered endangered by the IUCN it must meet certain quantitative criteria which are designed to classify taxa facing “a very high risk of exintction”. An even higher risk is faced by critically endangered species, which meet the quantitative criteria for endangered species. Critically endangered mammals are listed separately. There are 760 mammalian species which are endangered or critically endangered.
