Justification:
Listed as Least Concern as the species remains reasonably widespread within its range and relatively common with populations stable over much of the range. It is under less immediate threat than the other two subspecies of Ogilby's Duiker and will probably persist in significant numbers as long as its range remains thinly populated. However, increasing human occupation of its distribution in Gabon and Congo may eventually reduce it to protected areas, such as Lope and Gamba, and the subspecies may require uplisting to Near Threatened.
