I don't have the current stats of their wild populations, but they are still an endangered species. There is a captive breeding and replacement program down in Jamaica that is working on educating the people and trying to replensih wild populations. They were/are on the verge of extinction, glad that something is being done about it, unlike many other species, though I'm not sure how much success the program is having.......

You should have records of their captive breeding history in Canada from the time they were imported and records of the hands they have passed through, also a receipt of purchase is necessary.
