Population justification: The global population size has not been quantified, but the species is reported to be generally common to very common, though rare in Vietnam (Madge and Burn 1993).
Trend justification:
The species is tentatively assessed as being in decline due to habitat loss per Tracewski et al. (2016) and unsustainable levels of hunting.
