      I really hope not! However the situation doesn’t look that good at the moment.

      In the wild yes – due to their popularity they will still have individuals in cativity, their survival is dependant on the success of breeding programmes.

      I hope not, there is a slender chance they could adapt but it is a very long shot and it will be a very sad day if they do become extinct
