which lists species of mammals and includes those mammals that have recently been classified as extinct (since 1500 AD). The taxonomy and naming of the individual species is based on those used in existing

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:

life with a spindle-shaped nearly hairless body, protected by a thick layer of blubber, and forelimbs and tail modified to provide propulsion underwater.

There are over 260 species of carnivorans, the majority of which feed primarily on meat. They have a characteristic skull shape and dentition.
1100:
1073:

Species which were the focus of conservation programmes and may have moved into a higher risk category if that programme was discontinued.
1517:
1512:
1477:

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.
