The southern brown bandicoot is endangered primarily due to habitat loss and fragmentation caused by urban development, agriculture, and invasive species. These factors disrupt their natural habitats and reduce food availability. Additionally, predation by introduced species such as cats and foxes further threatens their population, leading to a decline in their numbers. Conservation efforts are essential to protect their remaining habitats and mitigate these threats.
