Take action today
Don’t let governments off the hook, help us call for real action that protects our natural environment from invasive species.
No country on Earth has parrots like ours. Of the 56 species found in Australia, 51 live nowhere else, from the critically endangered orange-bellied parrot to the swift parrot.

Australia’s wildlife is under attack. 365 days a year, 24 hours a day – invasive species are capturing and killing native animals, trashing and trampling protected areas and driving our wildlife closer to extinction.

The Invasive Species Council says a suspected detection of avian influenza in a migratory wild bird in southern Western Australia is a deeply concerning development and a stark reminder that Australia must remain prepared for the arrival of highly pathogenic H5N1 bird flu.
