Hi folks ,
You probably know by now that Gang-gang cockatoos are my favourite birds. Hell, my @crimsonbutterfly account is mostly filled with photos of Gang-gang. You might think that seeing so many of my #Ganggang photos means they must be a common species in #Australia #AusPol. Sadly, that isn’t the case.
Gang-gang cockatoos are listed ENDANGERED nationwide due to the destruction of their habitat from human-induced climate change or human-led bulldozing of old gum trees for development
The Australian Government has released their Draft National Recovery Plan for the Gang-Gang Cockatoo and the Red-tailed Black Cockatoo (Critically Endangered subspecies in Victoria).
If you’ve enjoyed my photos of Gang-gang Cockatoos, could you please spare a minute to send your comments on the Draft National Recovery Plan to the Australian Government’s Department of Climate Change, Energy, the Environment and Water?
We need a recovery plan that provides an actionable roadmap, backed by meaningful funding, to protect Gang-gangs and their habitat for generations to come. You don't need to be a scientist to send your comments. You caring is more than enough.
