Nevertheless, like many treeshrew species, Horsfield’s Treeshrew is thought to be declining, with an estimated 20 - 30 % population decline in the past decade due to loss offorest habitat. Additional studies on genetic diversity of Horsfield’s Treeshrew across Java and its basic ecology would benefit assessments of its conservation status.
