The first critical step in the management of Soga is to
update its threatened status at both the international and
national level. The status of Soga on the IUCN Red List is
currently being evaluated and based on its current distribution
and ongoing threats, it should be listed as Critically
Endangered (CR A4d or B2abv) or Endangered under
IUCN threat criteria. Following evaluation, the Soga will
be added to the list of species covered by the Fiji Endangered
Species Protection Act (2002) which includes all
species listed by IUCN.
