[Star Wars] Are Tauntauns in danger of going extinct?

It's clear that they aren't built to survive the cold nights of their home planet, and since the Hoth system is supposed to be devoid of humanoid life, there can't be a wide spread effort to domesticate and preserve them. How close are we to losing these gentle lizards forever?

No, they're not in danger.  They can survive the nights just fine, they'd hardly have evolved to their current state otherwise, eh?  
What they can't survive is being ridden hard out onto the most exposed areas at night time.  Left to their own devices they'll find a nice sheltered area and sleep through the night just fine.
