Paruku Rangers leading efforts for night parrots in Western Australia
Last week Paruku Indigenous Rangers hosted over 250 people from across the Kimberley and 10 Deserts to talk about threatened and culturally important species at the Species of the Desert Festival. The event built on the success of a smaller event about night parrots that Paruku Rangers held in October 2018. Both events brought together Indigenous land managers, Elders, Rangers, scientists and conservation organisations from the region to share traditional and scientific knowledge and talk about monitoring, management and threats. TSR Hub night parrot scientists attended both events to share the findings of research undertaken at Bush Heritage Australia’s Pullen Pullen Reserve in western Queensland.
