Burmeister's porpoise are often by-caught in fisheries and exploited for human consumption.
The lack of knowledge about this species may be the biggest threat to its survival. While directed hunts and by-catch are serious issues that account for the loss of many of animals every year, there is no information on how many Burmeister's porpoise there are and whether or not the population is stable or declining.
