The International Union for Conservation of Nature has listed the ''Oxynoemacheilus tigris'' as critically endangered. The last assessment on the species was back in 2013 and since then there range has shrunken even more and lead to the population to stay in decline. This has been due to climate change as well as water abstraction which is leading to the Queiq river the last known river system with the ''Oxynoemacheilus tigris'' to dry out. There are no conservation efforts being made due to the extreme nature of the range of the species the likelihood of the drainage drying out will occur before conservation efforts could happen.{{Cite report |url=https://www.iucnredlist.org/species/19431830/19849456 |title=Oxynoemacheilus tigris: Freyhof, J.: The IUCN Red List of Threatened Species 2014: e.T19431830A19849456 |last=IUCN |date=2013-01-15 |publisher=International Union for Conservation of Nature |doi=10.2305/iucn.uk.2014-1.rlts.t19431830a19849456.en. accessed on 23 april 2026. |language=en}}
