Im confused...it has been confirmed as being killed by a cat by John as well as
being confirmed that they have no idea what happened to it and it may not be
dead by Steve?

Subject: Important New Information on Night Parrots
There have been some interesting developments in the Night Parrot
story.
Feral cats may not be quite the hazard to the birds that we feared.
Dingoes are being regarded as a useful tool in protecting the
population. Significantly, the Queensland Government has become
involved in efforts to protect the property in south-west Queensland
where the parrots occur.
Dr Steve Murphy is to be congratulated on his excellent work - in
collaboration with John Young, who discovered the Night Parrot
population - in conducting further research into the birds, and in
developing conservation strategies to protect this critically
endangered species.
For further information and images of Night Parrot feathers, a feral
cat and a dingo from the site, see here:
