The original forest cover of this mountainous region has been cleared by 70%, even though there has been a recent recovery of the area. Additionally, hunting practices have extirpated populations from otherwise suitable areas. These threats have resulted in smaller and isolated populations, with a higher risk of extinction, scattered across this mountain system.https://mammalogynotes.org/ojs/index.php/mn/article/view/50monkey
