The Orange Bellied Parrots are beautiful little parrot that's found in the southwest of Tasmania. It's only a little bit bigger than a budgerie gar. It's found in the open grasslands down there and it nest in areas that have a few eucalyptus trees right next to an open button grass plain. It's a beautiful little bird, breeds in Tasmania and then it flies up to the mainland each year, each winter and then it goes returns to the southwest of Tasmania. This year it's become a real crisis. Only three females have returned to breed there's a few more males hovering around but there are only three breeding females. This bird is going to go extinct within the next couple of years unless we do something very dramatic to help say that. But the one trump card we have to play is that a few years ago the devilishest small breeding population in captivity. Now those birds when you release them into the world they don't do very well. They're not very fit or healthy and they can't make the migration very well but they are there and they are sort of insured population and we're hoping to use the young that they produce in captivity and to use those young to supplement the the young of the wild birds, put eggs under wild breeding birds, put nestlings under wild breeding birds and do whatever we can to increase that the reproductive success of those wild birds so that there are more of them surviving each season and ready to make that difficult migration. We've had wonderful success with another endangered species with parrot and we've been able to help them recently by providing them with a lot of nest boxes in the habitat where they do best. We're going to use a lot of the similar techniques at Malalukut with this remaining orange-bellied parrot. Also use these additional techniques whereby we get in there very very carefully manipulate the clutches and really make sure that they produce the maximum number of young for each breeding attempt that they make.
