| Red List Category & Criteria: |
Vulnerable
D1
ver 3.1

| Year Assessed: |
2008 |
| Assessor/s |
IUCN SSC Antelope Specialist Group |
| Evaluator/s: |
Mallon, D.P. (Antelope Red List Authority) & Hoffmann, M. (Global Mammal Assessment) |
Justification:
The assessment as Vulnerable is based on the latest estimate of the surviving population within its natural range (<1,000 mature individuals). Criterion D2 (five or fewer locations) may also be applicable, but detailed distribution data are currently unavailable. If animals introduced elsewhere in Namibia are included, a listing of Near Threatened would be merited.
