This is a list of the mammal species recorded in Sierra Leone. There are 183 mammal species in Sierra Leone, of which 0 are critically endangered, 6 are endangered, 9 are vulnerable, and 4 are near-threatened.[1] The following tags are used to highlight each species' conservation status as assessed by the IUCN: 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.

Tubulidentata are characterised by their teeth which lack a pulp cavity and form thin tubes which are continuously worn down and replaced. Family: Orycteropodidae Genus: Orycteropus Aardvark Orycteropus afer LC Order: Hyracoidea (hyraxes) The hyraxes are any of four species of fairly small, thickset, herbivorous mammals in the order Hyracoidea. About the size of a domestic cat they are well-furred, with rounded bodies and a stmpy tail. They are native to Africa and the Middle East. Family: Procaviidae (hylaxes) Genus: Dendrohyrax Western Tree Hyrax Dendrohyrax dorsalis LC Order: Proboscidea (elephants) African Bush Elephant The elephants comprise three living species and are the largest living land animals. Family: Elephantidae (elephants) Genus: Loxodonta African Bush Elephant Loxodonta africana VU Order: Sirenia (manatees and dugongs) 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. Family: Trichechidae Genus: Trichechus African Manatee Trichechus senegalensis VU Order: Primates Diana Monkey Guinea Baboon The order Primates contains all the species commonly related to the lemurs, monkeys, and apes, with the latter category including humans.

Though they can resemble rodents, 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. Family: Leporidae (rabbits, hares) Genus: Lepus African Savanna Hare Lepus microtis LR/lc Order: Erinaceomorpha (hedgehogs and gymnures) The order Erinaceomorpha contains a single family, Erinaceidae, which comprise the hedgehogs and gymnures.
