A rapid mammal survey was conducted in Mount Silam Lahad Datu from the 11th – 17th of January, 2020. The survey was intended to update the current inventory of mammals within the mountain. Camera trapping and recce transect methods were applied. A total of 21 species were recorded throughout the field survey. When merged with previous study, Mount Silam is home to at least 35 mammal species. Of this, seven are treated as threatened species, for example, the Sunda pangolin (Manis javanica) and Bornean gibbon (Hylobates muelleri). The latter is a Bornean endemic including four other mammal species. This paper has listed mammals that were not spotted previously. Research findings of this study are relevant to policy makers and scientists.
