Its range is restricted to a narrow band of Kenya's high central Rift Valley, which makes it especially vulnerable.1

2

In 2019, the International Union for Conservation of Nature classed it as Vulnerable.1

3

In 2004, Kenya proposed listing the species on CITES Appendix II, a list that controls international trade in wild animals.1
