er is among the 25 “most wanted lost” species that are the focus of Re:wild’s “Search for Lost Species” initiative.[3] As there in no proof that the single specimen originated on Ilin Island, searches are now focussed on nearby Mindoro. Hope that it may be rediscovered have prompted IUCN to improve its status from possibly Extinct (EX?) in 1994 to Critically Endangered (CR) in 1996 before the current Data Deficient (DD) from 2008.[1]
