'''Endangered mammals of India''' are the mammal species in India that are listed as threatened in the [[International Union for Conservation of Nature and Natural Resources]] (IUCN) [[Red List of Threatened Animals]]

== Background ==
In [[India]], [[Mammal|mammals]] comprise 410 species, 186 [[genus|genera]], 45 [[family (biology)|families]] and 13 [[order (biology)|order]]s of which nearly 89 [[species]] are listed as threatened in the [[International Union for Conservation of Nature and Natural Resources]] (IUCN) [[Red List of Threatened Animals]] (IUCN 2006).<ref name=":0">{{Cite web|url=http://www.wii.gov.in/nwdc/mammals.htm|title=Indian Mammals|last=|first=|date=2007-07-04|website=archive.is|url-status=live|archive-url=https://archive.today/20070704233109/http://www.wii.gov.in/nwdc/mammals.htm|archive-date=2007-07-04|access-date=October 5, 2006}}</ref> This includes two species that are locally extinct from India viz. ''[[Acinonyx Jubatus|Acinonyx jubatus]]'' and ''[[Rhinoceros sondaicus]]''.<ref name=":0" />

The mammals are the [[Class (biology)|class]] of [[vertebrate]] animals characterized by the presence of [[mammary gland]]s, which in [[female]]s produce [[milk]] for the nourishment of young; the presence of [[hair]] or [[fur]]; specialized [[tooth|teeth]]; the presence of a [[neocortex]] region in the [[brain]]; and endothermic or "[[warm-blooded]]" bodies. The brain regulates endothermic and [[circulatory system]], including a four-chambered [[heart]]. Mammals encompass some 5,500 species (including [[Human]]s), distributed in about 1,200 genera, 152 families and up to 46 orders, though this varies with the classification scheme.
