The Annamite striped rabbit is found in conservation areas Phong Nha-Kẻ Bàng National Park, Nakai–Nam Theun, and Umat, within their natural geographic range. They are also found in the Vietnam provincial protected area Nam Chat/Nam Pan and Xe Sap in Laos.
Unfortunately, protected areas across the species’ range remain little more than paper parks, and if the species is to survive in the wild, this situation must change fundamentally.
Most other protected areas known or likely to hold the species are probably at least as exploited and as of 2018 receive minimal law enforcement effort or snare removal.
