http://www.abc.net.au/news/2012-11-30/fears-for-the-orange-bellied-parrot/4401966 The ABC's 7.30 Tasmania screened this 8-minute segment on Friday night, which neatly dovetails Tim Flannery's concerns about a looming extinction crisis (detailed in the current Quarterly Essay), with the plight of the Orange-bellied Parrot. Covers several important issues and features Mark Holdsworth, the Tasmanian coordinator of the OBP Recovery Program. This should have aired nation-wide. I agree with Flannery that we as a nation don't care nearly enough; nobody is accountable for dropping the ball on threatened species. =============================== To unsubscribe from this mailing list, send the message: unsubscribe (in the body of the message, with no Subject line) to: http://birding-aus.org =============================== |
