Estimating the global population of dholes (Cuon alpinus) is challenging due to their elusive nature and the varied habitats they occupy across Asia. Current estimates suggest that there are between 1,500 to 2,500 mature individuals remaining in the wild, classifying them as endangered. Their populations are declining due to habitat loss, human-wildlife conflict, and competition with other predators. Conservation efforts are crucial to protect these unique canids and their habitats.
