  • Protecting Western Ground Parrots from Climate Change: Habitat Restoration & Fire Management
    1. Creating new habitat

    The western ground parrot is a ground-dwelling bird that lives in grassy woodlands and heathlands. As climate change causes these habitats to become drier and more fragmented, the parrot is losing its home. To help the parrot survive, we are creating new habitat by planting native grasses and shrubs and restoring degraded land.

    2. Managing fire

    Fire is a natural part of the western ground parrot's habitat, but too much fire can be devastating. We are working with land managers to develop fire management plans that will help to protect the parrot's habitat from wildfires.

    3. Controlling predators

    Predators, such as foxes and cats, are a major threat to the western ground parrot. We are working with land managers to control predators and protect the parrot's nests.

    4. Monitoring the population

    It is important to monitor the western ground parrot population to track its progress and identify any threats. We are working with researchers to conduct regular surveys of the parrot's population.

    5. Raising awareness

    Raising awareness about the western ground parrot is essential to its survival. We are working with the media and community groups to educate people about the parrot and the threats it faces.

    By working together, we can help the western ground parrot survive climate change and ensure that it continues to thrive in the wild.
