Justification of Red List category
This species is largely dependent on lowland evergreen forest within a region experiencing high rates of deforestation. Although it may be more tolerant of secondary habitats than some other hornbill species, high hunting pressure is likely exacerbating the population decline caused by habitat loss. The species is suspected to be undergoing a large population reduction. Therefore, it is listed as Vulnerable.
