Location: LEE/1.
Also as mentioned previously, The Present situation in the Solomons and Papua New Guinea reminds me of the situation of Cacatua Goffini a couple of decades back. Japanese loggers completely laid waste to the homeworld of these little fellows with profiteering individuals collectioning the dazed and comfused survivors to ship for the pet trade. MANY died in the process but the market was flooded with these guys making purchase very affordable at the time. The result is the population base of captive bred animals extant now. They are virtually wiped out in their homeland. Coucia zebrata fate seems similar by comparison. Any responsible person wishing to keep and perpetuate this species, the time is now.
Sincerely,
