ABOUT
Saving Endangered Species
Protecting wild parrots means assessing and preserving their populations, genetic diversity, environment, food supply and nesting areas. Human activities such as poaching, introduced predators and wildlife conflicts have greatly threatened wild parrots.
Studying Parrot Ecology
Researching the behaviour, habitat, diet and breeding behaviours of little-known species. This understanding is crucial for directing effective conservation efforts.
Determining Population Threats
Discovering why certain species or populations are decreasing. Causes may include habitat loss, climate change, pollution, poaching, disease, or other factors.
Restoring Wild Populations
Implementing proactive measures to increase numbers including breeding-for-release programs, habitat enhancement and protection, reintroduction of species into their home ranges or translocation to suitable areas.
Identifying Species at Risk
Assessing the size, health and distribution of wildlife populations. This data is vital for understanding species' current status and identifying those at risk.
Implementing Conservation Strategies
Developing and completing actions to mitigate or remove those threats. This could include habitat restoration, legal protections, and anti-poaching efforts.
Building Long-term Alliances
Effective conservation with support and collaboration across multiple levels. This includes garnering support from local and regional governments, non-governmental organisations, communities and other concerned parties.
