Conservation strategies focused on habitat restoration and prey population recovery.
Collaboration between public bodies, NGOs, and local communities was crucial.
The species is now classified as 'vulnerable' rather than 'endangered' by the IUCN.
Ongoing threats include disease outbreaks, climate change, and poaching.
