Population justification: Wetlands International (2019) estimate the global population to number 20,000-85,000 mature individuals, while Partners in Flight (2019) estimate fewer than 50,000 mature individuals.
Trend justification: The population trend is difficult to determine. Wetlands International (2019) report stable trends for the population in central South America and unknown trends for the population in Central America and northern South America. Partners in Flight (2019) however list a small overall decline.
