List of rarest species in US?

In the Wisconsin area? What are some of the species you are thinking of? Any bats, moles, shrews, voles or other small rodents?

 

Plenty of bats, a couple ground squirrel species, and few native mice (mainly White-footed).

 

What species of bat, ground squirrel and native mice...and more importantly...where!?

 

Little Brown and Big Brown are around at pretty much every nature center or wildlife sanctuary. They might have an Eastern Red Bat at Ledgeview Nature Center but I'm not sure.

Franklin's Ground Squirrel is the only species still present in the area, at Shalom Wildlife Zoo, but other species pop up frequently.

As for mice, similar situation to the ground squirrels. Only White-footed is present right now, at Bay Beach Wildlife Sanctuary. Other species pop up from time to time.

 

Audubon has Talapoin monkey, Brazilian ocelot, Nancy Ma's night monkey, St Vincent agouti. Hattiesburg, MS zoo has Blue duiker. Don't know about Jackson. Indian muntjac at Baton Rouge and other ungulates also at that zoo

 

I believe the night-monkeys are currently off-exhibit for an exhibit renovation.

thanks

 

@Giant Eland Bay Beach Wildlife Sanctuary has a Southern Flying Squirrel.

 

those are not rare, more uncommon.

 

Maybe so, but actually seeing the flying squirrel is rare in my experience! Usually a ball of fur at best.

 

I just saw a pair of flying squirrels for sale for only $200.

 

They're a fairly common "exotic" pet trade species.

Amazing Animals in Florida claims to keep Azara's night monkey

I've found another facility with pale fox! Cub Creek Science Camp in Missouri has 2. Pale Fox - Cub Creek Science and Animal Camp
They also have a geoffroy's cat that lives with the foxes. I've found at least 4 places so far that have geoffroy's.

 

African leopards most zoos display Amur leopards but in USA zoos Africans are rare

 

Columbus now has Tasmanian devils

 

I highly doubt there are any actual African Leopards left in US zoos, but rather generic Leopards being called African.
