List of mammals Bangladesh

The Bengal tiger , Panthera tigris tigris , is the national animal of Bangladesh.

This is a list of mammal species registered in Bangladesh . Bangladesh has 89 species of mammals, of which 3 are on the verge of extinction, 12 are endangered, 16 are vulnerable, and 4 are close to vulnerable. ^[one]

The following tags are used to highlight the conservation status of each species as estimated by IUCN :

- extinct species in the wild
- extinct in the wild, whose representatives survived only in captivity
- endangered species (in critical condition)
- endangered species
- vulnerable species
- species close to vulnerable situations
- species at least risk
- species for which a threat assessment is lacking data

Some species have been evaluated using earlier criteria. Species evaluated using this system have the following categories instead of threatened and least dangerous:

Lr / cd	Lower risk / conservation dependent	Species that were the focus of conservation programs and may have moved into a higher risk category if the program was discontinued.
LR / nt	Lower risk / near threatened	Species that are close to being classified as vulnerable but are not the subject of conservation programs.
Lr / lc	Lower risk / least concern	Species for which there are no identifiable risks.
