Ten individuals of the species were imported to the
Isle of Man in 1990 and held in captivity at the
Curraghs Wildlife Park. Nearby records of escaped birds living in the wild began from 1995. In 1996 breeding in the wild was confirmed. By 1998 all of the original ten captive birds had either died or escaped. The last published records of birds in the wild was in July 2005. It is presumed that the small population persisted for sometime after; however, it is believed that the population has since died out (2017). ==References==
