This list of mammals of Vermont includes all mammal species living in the US state of Vermont. Three species, the eastern cottontail, house mouse, and Norway rat have been introduced, into the state.[1] Four species of mammals are currently extirpated from the state: elk, gray wolf, wolverine, and caribou.[2][3] Vermont does not have a designated state mammal, but does designate the Morgan horse as its state horse. The list does not include species found only in captivity.
