État de la populationTexte officiel évaluation IUCNExpert
There is limited reliable information on the population status of this species. Lybian Striped Weasels are not uncommon, and are reportedly abundant in coastal dunes, but numbers are probably subject to periodic fluctuations (Cuzin 2013).

Description complète des menacesTexte détaillé évaluation IUCNExpert
There are no major threats, but Lybian Striped Weasels are exploited in Tunisia in the belief that they are capable of increasing human male fertility. Also, they may be subject to competition with Least Weasel (Mustela nivalis) in the most productive habitats (e.g., in Morocco: F. Cuzin pers. obs. 2007).

It is protected by law in Morocco, Algeria and Tunisia (K. de Smet pers. comm. 2007). It is presumably present in several protected areas across the range.
