    Faces a high risk of extinction in the wild.

    Cuvier's gazelles face threats from habitat loss due to agriculture and overhunting. While specific recovery programs are limited, conservation efforts focus on protecting their remaining woodland and semi-arid habitats. Responsible safari tourism can help by supporting local economies that rely on wildlife, funding anti-poaching patrols, and raising awareness about the importance of protecting this vulnerable species.

    Cuvier's gazelle is a species of gazelle native to Algeria, Morocco, Western Sahara, and Tunisia. It is also known as the edmi. It is one of the darkest gazelle species, possibly an adaptation to its partial woodland habitat. It is sometimes placed into the genus Trachelocele together with the goitered gazelles and the rhim gazelles.
