Description complète des menacesTexte détaillé évaluation IUCNExpert

The major threat affecting this species is habitat loss in parts of its range caused by the conversion of wetlands to agricultural land (maize, sorghum and cassava), urban expansion, and overgrazing. It was formerly felt that cultivation of dambos would grossly damage the headwaters. More recently, however, the policy has slightly changed to allow utilisation of dambos for agriculture under strictly controlled conditions (FAO 1997). In addition to these threats, the increase in global temperature is causing more severe droughts in these habitats (FAO 1997, Matiza and Chabwela 1992).
