First the thylacine, then the koala, then the kookaburra...

"The tree hollows kookaburras need to breed can take a hundred years to develop. Every forest patch felled means hollows are lost. Over the past 200 years, nearly 50% of our forest cover has been felled. Urban development all along Australia’s east coast has continued."

The “guuguubarra” laughed for 16.3 million years. "That once-ubiquitous call will be heard no more."

"If species such as kookaburras and koalas are disappearing, then the threatened species have no hope."
