Zoo officials say Babirusas are endangered due to shrinking habitat and over-hunting.

While all three sub-species' population trends ARE decreasing, only the Togian Islands Babirusa is currently listed by the IUCN as 'Endangered', while the other two are currently listed as 'Vulnerable': March 25th, 2011.

***Threats to their survival include, but are not limited to:

Residential AND commercial development,

Agriculture and aquaculture,

Biological resource use,

Human intrusions and disturbance,

Natural system modifications, and

Invasive and other problematic species and genes.
