This is a list of the mammal species recorded in Ethiopia. There are 279 mammal species in Ethiopia, of which 5 are critically endangered, 8 are endangered, 27 are vulnerable, and 12 are near-threatened.
The following tags are used to highlight each species' conservation status as assessed by the IUCN:
Some species were assessed using an earlier set of criteria. Species assessed using this system have the following instead of near threatened and least concern categories:
Subclass: Theria
Infraclass: Eutheria
Order: Macroscelidea (elephant-shrews)
Often called sengisi, the elephant shrews or jumping shrews are native to southern Africa. Their common English name derives from their elongated flexible snout and their resemblance to the true shrews.

Order: Lagomorpha (lagomorphs)
The lagomorphs comprise two families, Leporidae (hares and rabbits), and Ochotonidae (pikas).

They differ from rodents in a number of physical characteristics, such as having four incisors in the upper jaw rather than two.
