   Jan 1, 2018 · The dugong (Dugong dugon) is the only extant representative of the once-diverse family Dugongidae in the order Sirenia. The dugong’s closest modern relative, Steller’s sea cow (Hydrodamalis gigas), was hunted to extinction in the 18th century (Marsh et al., 2011).

   The dugong's current distribution is fragmented, and many populations are believed to be close to extinction. The IUCN lists the dugong as a species vulnerable to extinction, while the Convention on International Trade in Endangered Species limits or bans the trade of derived products.

   Oct 13, 2022 · These extinctions provide crucial lessons for ongoing and future conservation of surviving dugong populations and other marine megafauna. Extirpated dugong populations were lost through deliberate hunting, accidental bycatch, and destruction of their seagrass habitat (2 – 6).

   Are dugong extinctions anthropogenic?

   • Despite being legally protected in many countries, the main causes of population decline remain anthropogenic and include fishing-related fatalities, habitat degradation, and hunting. With its long lifespan of 70 years or more and slow rate of reproduction, the dugong is especially vulnerable to extinction.

   Why are dugong extinctions important?

   • The disappearance of these populations follows dugong losses in the Mascarenes, Maldives, Lakshadweep Islands, and Spermonde Islands (4, 5). These extinctions provide crucial lessons for ongoing and future conservation of surviving dugong populations and other marine megafauna.

   Did a stranded dugong go extinct?

   • A stranded dugong on Hainan Island, China, in 2008 may have been the last of the country’s now functionally extinct population. Dugongs persist in other shallow tropical and subtropical marine environments, but most populations are threatened (4).

   Apr 12, 2022 · This study first reconstructed and observed the trajectory to possible extinction of the dugong subpopulation, with the number of dugongs declining from < 70 in 1979 to 11 in 1997, 3 in 2006, and finally going almost extinct in 2019.
