Population justification: Snow and Snow (1969) estimated 600-800 mature individuals which Wetlands International (2002) interpreted to equate to 900-1,200 individuals. This may be an overestimate (Aguirre 2007, D. Wiedenfeld in litt. 2012).
Trend justification: Numbers are assumed to be stable although there are a number of potential threats which may be having an impact.
