List of Endangered Species in Paraguay

No species meet the exact criteria for “Endangered Species in Paraguay.”

Understand that this result comes from a very narrow rule. Require a species to be officially listed as “Endangered” for Paraguay by the IUCN and matched by national red lists at the same time. Under that strict definition, no species currently qualify. Many species in Paraguay appear in other threat categories or on national conservation lists with different terms.

Recognize the technical reasons behind this empty list. Global and national assessments use different methods and names for risk categories. Taxonomy changes, recent reassessments, and gaps in local data can move species between categories. Some well-known Paraguayan animals are on regional watchlists or have IUCN statuses like Vulnerable, Near Threatened, or Critically Endangered in parts of their range rather than “Endangered” for Paraguay alone.

Consider close alternatives and useful lists instead. Look at IUCN Red List entries, Paraguay’s national red list, NGO reports, and protected-species registers. Explore related groups such as Vulnerable species, Critically Endangered species, endemic species of the Gran Chaco, or flagship species pages for jaguar (Panthera onca), maned wolf (Chrysocyon brachyurus), hyacinth macaw (Anodorhynchus hyacinthinus), giant anteater (Myrmecophaga tridactyla), and Chacoan peccary (Catagonus wagneri).
