Reason for endangerment:

Years of war has caused deforestation. "The wild population probably numbered at least 10,000 in 1983 (Thornback 1983). It was however declining drastically through over-hunting; intolerance of habitat destruction and disturbance by people; and exposure to the diseases of domestic cattle (e.g. rinderpest, foot-and-mouth and anthrax)."
