TheU.S. state ofAlabama is home to these knownindigenousmammalspecies.^[1] Historically, the state's indigenous species included onearmadillo species, sixteenbat species, thirteencarnivore species, sixinsectivore species, oneopossum species, fourrabbit species, twenty-tworodent species, and threeungulate species.^{[2][3][4][5][6][7]} Four of these native species have becomeextirpated within the state, including theAmerican bison (Bos bison),cougar (Puma concolor),red wolf (Canis rufus), and theelk (Cervus canadensis).^[1][8]

There are six knownintroduced mammal species in the state. These include theblack rat,brown rat,fallow deer,wild boar,house mouse, andnutria.^[8]

Human predation andhabitat destruction has placed several mammal species at risk ofextirpation orextinction. TheAlabama Department of Conservation and Natural Resources lists theconservation status of each species within the state with a rank of lowest, low, moderate, high, and highest concern.^{[3][5][6][7][8]}
