The Northern Hairy Nosed Wombat is listed as endangered in Australia and critically endangered by IUCN. It is one of the world's rarest mammals and certainly one of Australia's rarest marsupial.
There is only one single known population left in existence: a population of approximately 100 individuals with only 25 breeding females. This population is situated in Epping Forest in central western Queensland.

This species of wombat is endangered due to drought, which has decimted the wombat's food supply, predation by dingoes, human interference and hunting, habitat loss, and competition from introduced cattle, sheep and rabbits for food and shelter. The greatest current threat is that there is only one known population in existence.
