PHP new Imagick('image.webp') 不工作

Question

I have a sneaking suspicion that the reason why my local works when I call:

$image = new Imagick($image_source);

• where $image_source is a webp image

versus when I use the same call and image format type in my staging environment is due to the difference of a combination of my local apache php & imagick versions and staging versions.

Local

imagick:

imagick module version => 3.7.0

Staging

imagick:

imagick module version => 3.4.3

Imagick using ImageMagick library version => ImageMagick 6.9.4-1 Q16 x86_64 2016-10-13 http://www.imagemagick.org

When I call new Imagick($image_source); in my staging environment, I'm noticing that it stops on that line and that line only without returning anything for $image .

Can anyone put my suspicions to rest here? I've exhausted my troubleshooting and rabbit hole-ing. Thank you!
