Batfish are not currently listed as endangered, but they are subject to the same environmental pressures that affect many marine species. Habitat destruction, climate change, and overfishing have an impact on batfish populations globally. Conservation status can vary by region, but in general, batfish are not considered to be at high risk. However, their reliance on coral reefs, which are under threat from bleaching and other environmental stressors, means that protecting their habitats is critical to their continued survival. Batfish are a common sight in the Indo-Pacific's coral reef systems. Initiatives like marine protected areas, sustainable tourism, and responsible fishing practices contribute to the conservation of batfish and the rich biodiversity of regions like Mauritius.
