context_page_description: The fauna of the Australian Territory includes representatives from most major Australian animal groups.
context_section_description: At least 290 species of birds have been recorded by the Canberra Ornithologists Group.  The gang-gang cockatoo is the bird emblem of the ACT.  Some birds migrate through the ACT, whereas others breed as residents.  The deliberately introduced common myna is an environmental pest that is firmly established in the urban area.
