List of mammals of Singapore
Callosciurus notatus
)Macaca fascicularis
)Presbytis femoralis
) was almost extirpated in SingaporeThere are currently about 65 species of mammals in Singapore.extirpated from Singapore largely due to rapid urban development, with occasional large mammals such as Asian elephants swimming across the Straits of Johor from Johor, Malaysia.[2]
Many surviving species have critically low population numbers, the most seriously endangered being the
greater mousedeer on Pulau Ubin in 2009.[5]
The most commonly seen native mammals are the long-tailed macaque and plantain squirrel. The largest terrestrial mammal that can still be found is the wild boar, which is common on the offshore islands of Pulau Ubin and Pulau Tekong, but also found on the mainland. The largest mammals in Singapore, however, are marine creatures such as dugongs and dolphins. The colugo is also doing well, but these are rarely seen due to their elusiveness and camouflage.
