Reserved wild animals are the highest class of protection for animal species in Thailand's wildlife conservation framework. There are currently twenty designated species, defined by The Wild Animal Conservation and Protection Act B.E. 2562 (2019). The 2019 act replaced the original law from 1992. The law prohibits hunting, breeding, possessing, or trading any of such species, except when done for scientific research with permission from the Permanent Secretary of National Park, Wildlife and Plant Conservation, or breeding and possession by authorised public zoos.

<span class="mw-page-title-main">Crawshay's zebra</span> Subspecies of zebra

Crawshay's zebra is a subspecies of the plains zebra native to eastern Zambia, east of the Luangwa River, Malawi, southeastern Tanzania, and northern Mozambique south to the Gorongoza District. Crawshay's zebras can be distinguished from other subspecies of plains zebras in that its lower incisors lack an infundibulum. Crawshay's zebra has very narrow stripes compared to other forms of the plains zebra.

<i>Rhinoceros sondaicus annamiticus</i> Subspecies of mammal

The Vietnamese Javan rhinoceros, also known as the Indo-Chinese Javan rhinoceros, is an extinct subspecies of the Javan rhinoceros that formerly lived in Laos, Cambodia, Thailand, Malaysia, and Vietnam. The subspecific term annamiticus derives from the Annamite name of the Indochinese Mountains in Indochina, part of the historical distribution of the subspecies.

<span class="mw-page-title-main">Western Sumatran rhinoceros</span> Subspecies of mammal

The western Sumatran rhinoceros is a subspecies of the Sumatran rhinoceros that is native to Sumatra, primarily within these Indonesian national parks: Bukit Barisan Selatan National Park, Kerinci Seblat National Park, Mount Leuser National Park, and its population is partially remaining in Way Kambas National Park. The subspecies went extinct in the Malaysian Peninsula. Its population is limited, with only around 275 rhinos left in the wild, from which they are being threatened by poaching, and occasional habitat loss. A few individuals are being held and bred in captivity within the Sumatran Rhino Sanctuary, and in the Cincinnati Zoo and Botanical Garden.
