List of mammals in Thailand
Encyclopedia
This is a list of the mammal species recorded in Thailand. There are 264 mammal species in Thailand
, of which 3 are critically endangered, 11 are endangered, 24 are vulnerable, and 2 are near-threatened. 1 of the species listed for Thailand is considered to be extinct.
The following tags are used to highlight each species' conservation status as assessed by the IUCN
:
Some species were assessed using an earlier set of criteria. Species assessed using this system have the following instead of Near Threatened and Least Concern categories:
Order: Proboscidea
----
The elephants comprise three living species and are the largest living land animals.
Order: Sirenia
----
Sirenia is an order of fully aquatic, herbivorous mammals that inhabit rivers, estuaries, coastal marine waters, swamps, and marine wetlands. All four species are endangered.
The treeshrews are small mammals native to the tropical forests of Southeast Asia
. Although called treeshrews, they are not true shrews and are not all arboreal.
The two species of colugos make up the order Dermoptera. They are arboreal gliding mammals found in Southeast Asia
.
The order Primates contains all the species commonly related to the lemur
s, monkey
s, and ape
s, with the latter category including humans. It is divided informally into three main groupings: prosimian
s, monkeys of the New World
, and monkeys and apes of the Old World
.
Order: Rodent
----
Rodents make up the largest order of mammals, with over 40 percent of mammalian species. They have two incisor
s in the upper and lower jaw which grow continually and must be keep short by gnawing. Most rodents are small though the capybara
can weigh up to 45 kg (100 lb).
Order: Lagomorpha
----
The lagomorphs comprise two families, Leporidae
(hare
s and rabbit
s), and Ochotonidae (pika
s). Though they can resemble rodent
s, and were classified as a superfamily
in that order until the early 20th century, they have since been considered a separate order. They differ from rodents in a number of physical characteristics, such as having four incisors in the upper jaw rather than two.
The order Erinaceomorpha contains a single family, Erinaceidae, which comprise the hedgehog
s and gymnure
s. The hedgehogs are easily recognised by their spines while gymnures look more like large rats.
Order: Soricomorpha
----
The "shrew-forms" are insectivorous mammals. The shrews and soledons closely resemble mice while the moles are stout bodied burrowers.
The bats' most distinguishing feature is that their forelimbs are developed as wings, making them the only mammals in the world naturally capable of flight. Bat species account for about 20% of all mammals.
The order Philodota comprises the eight species of pangolin. Pangolins are anteaters and have the powerful claws, elongated snout and long tongue seen in the other unrelated anteater
species.
Order: Cetacea
----
The order Cetacea includes whale
s, dolphin
s and porpoise
s. They are the mammals most fully adapted to aquatic
life with a spindle-shaped nearly hairless body, protected by a thick layer of blubber, and forelimbs and tail modified to provide propulsion underwater.
Order: Carnivora
----
There are over 260 species of carnivorans, the majority of which feed primarily on meat. They have a characteristic skull shape and dentition.
The odd-toed ungulates are browsing and grazing
mammals. They are usually large to very large, and have relatively simple stomachs and a large middle toe.
The even-toed ungulates are ungulate
s whose weight is borne about equally by the third and fourth toes, rather than mostly or entirely by the third as in perissodactyls. There are about 220 artiodactyl species, including many that are of great economic importance to human
s.
Thailand
Thailand , officially the Kingdom of Thailand , formerly known as Siam , is a country located at the centre of the Indochina peninsula and Southeast Asia. It is bordered to the north by Burma and Laos, to the east by Laos and Cambodia, to the south by the Gulf of Thailand and Malaysia, and to the...

The following tags are used to highlight each species' conservation status as assessed by the IUCN
World Conservation Union
The International Union for Conservation of Nature and Natural Resources is an international organization dedicated to finding "pragmatic solutions to our most pressing environment and development challenges." The organization publishes the IUCN Red List, compiling information from a network of...
:
EX | Extinct | No reasonable doubt that the last individual has died. |
EW | Extinct in the wild | Known only to survive in captivity or as a naturalized populations well outside its previous range. |
CR | Critically Endangered | The species is in imminent risk of extinction in the wild. |
EN | Endangered | The species is facing an extremely high risk of extinction in the wild. |
VU | Vulnerable | The species is facing a high risk of extinction in the wild. |
NT | Near Threatened | The species does not meet any of the criteria that would categorise it as risking extinction but it is likely to do so in the future. |
LC | Least Concern | There are no current identifiable risks to the species. |
DD | Data Deficient | There is inadequate information to make an assessment of the risks to this species. |
Some species were assessed using an earlier set of criteria. Species assessed using this system have the following instead of Near Threatened and Least Concern categories:
LR/cd | Lower Risk/conservation dependent | Species which were the focus of conservation programmes and may have moved into a higher risk category if that programme was discontinued. |
LR/nt | Lower Risk/near threatened | Species which are close to being classified as Vulnerable but are not the subject of conservation programmes. |
LR/lc | Lower Risk/least concern | Species for which there are no identifiable risks. |
