Red List of Mammals for Peninsular Malaysia - Red List Mammalia Semenanjung Malaysia
2010  Full Book

The IUCN Red List of Threatened Species has assessed 68 species of the 222 we have listed for Peninsular Malaysia. Of these, seven (7) are considered to be endangered and 10 vulnerable. Of the 222 species assessed in the assessment, one (1) has been classed as _critically endangered_, 26 have been classed as _endangered _and 22 as _vulnerable_. And this is probably an underestimate since we have not used population data and estimates on all species facing selective conservation pressures such as poaching, habitat fragmentation and commercial exploitation. The output of the assessment is the baseline information on species, a measure of their habitat and its rate of change over time, current population distribution maps and the findings from applying the red list criteria.
