Plenary speaker Dejan Stojanovich describes how the orange bellied parrots have been resistant to conservation, and are generally a challenging species to study. A lot of research and conservation trial and effort has been put in to diagnosing causes of decline. #AOC2025

We are absolutely thrilled to introduce Clive and Inhancer, a pair caught yesterday in the Macquarie Marshes and fitted with GPS 4G transmitters from Global Messenger. We are immensely grateful to the local landholders, Leanne, Garry and Jet Hall, who were central in making it happen.
