Hi Evan

They are on my list because a few have escaped down here in SE Melbourne. We've stopped the two breeding attempts we identified and, later than desirable, a large breeding population at Alice Springs was, I hope, extirpated.

However they may not have been considered able to breed without dependency on humans.

I'm pretty sure the species is on the Atlas list so that outbreaks can be reported.

In other words, if they are on any list, they should be threatened and let's get them extinct a.s.a.p

See the archive for other reports.
