Population justification: The population size is preliminarily estimated to fall into the band 2,500-9,999 mature individuals. This equates to 3,750-14,999 individuals in total, rounded here to 3,500-15,000 individuals.

Trend justification: Intensive hunting pressure and on-going habitat loss are suspected to be driving a rapid population reduction in this species.
