Population justification: The global population is estimated to number 3 million mature individuals (Partners in Flight 2019).
Trend justification: The population is increasing (Partners in Flight 2019). Short-term trends suggest a rate of increase of 19% over the past ten years, though this value is non-significant (Pardieck et al. 2018).
