Justification of Red List category
Until 2024 this species was listed as Least Concern, with no evidence for it being threatened. However, it is now evidenced that very recently trapping has driven likely very rapid declines and extirpated the species from several areas it was once found. This is particularly concerning since G. annamensis has only a small range, making it particularly easy for trappers to access and remove a large percentage of the global population rapidly. It is accordingly listed as Endangered.
