How Australian Farmers Deal With Millions Of Invasive Wild Parrots

[@vvvbbbbcccc]

The Indian Ringneck is the only bird that is Not native to Australia all the rest ARE native.

[@watjejanssen7535]

we have hundreds might even be thousands in the Netherlands(Holland) of the ringnecks started with a small population in Amsterdam park !

[@stevenhall8964]

These are ALL NATIVE BIRDS except the Indian Ringnecks, whereas wheat,barely and macadamia nuts are not!

[@remainanonymous93]

The only invasive species in Australia are the convicts the British sent over. 😂😂😂😂

[@lisadolan689]

Oh remainannonymous, 🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣 that means you are either an immigrant or a first gen immigrant. Australia’s biggest problem has not been immigration, it’s multiculturalism. Assimilate or relocate. Come live here peacefully by all mean, but YOU must assimilate into OUR culture, don’t FORCE your culture on us. Not going to work. 😂😂😂

[@FatBellyChemist1234]

Free parrots for everyone is the best

[@JunaidWolf3]

Meanwhile these same parrots cost thousands of dollars just to buy and keep as a pet in America gosh I wish they can just sell them or give them to people like me who wants them

[@seabee2653]

Exactly. Looking for a seller who can live ship to the states.

[@sharathSizZle]

These birds are ALL endangered in my country 😅 coz of very few numbers left if it is such a problem ALL Australia has to do is capture them all and donate to countries where their numbers are threatened. But no, No one wants to solve the issue just want to complain about it 😅

[@steveskeet4479]

Cos these birds are a pain in the arse to farmers ……that’s what the article is saying …Doh !

[@aijazahmad9384]

If they capture them & release them in your country they too will become endangered that is why they're not doing it

I will gladly welcome these parrots here in Southern Leyte Philippines hahahah.. I always dreamed of taking care of parrot

[@Mbabz1957]

Well you can have a million or two 😂

[@suiken3149]

They are called invasive species for a reason. You don't want to keep them, at least not in large volumes.

[@lissarodrigues8950]

I love parots! My goodness this is my first time to know they can be invasive. I understand how and why and understand that if anything get out of control is not disirable anymore. What a beauty! Nature is beautiful!❤

[@sharathSizZle]

Wait so parrots trying to feed itself is a problem however hoomanz who murder animals for sport aren't 😂😅

[@nayanmolla32]

❤😂

[@southside1975]

start eating dirt then come back and comment

[@cjod33]

No, just the ones damaging the environment to the detriment of other species. Forcing smaller less aggressive and endangered species out of their natural nesting/breeding areas. Ever thought about how many forms of life have been killed or affected by the bowl of rice, cereal or loaf of bread you consume? The more people that live in the cities the greater the pressure on the farming areas outside the city.

[@user-dl4dn5th3c]

I never heard Indian ringnecks as an invasive species in Australia,and I live in Sydney,and I can tell you no one here in Australia is allowed to kill parrots not even farmers,unless you want to cop a massive fine or even go to jail,all native species are protected by the law,all native species , and by the way we have no invasive parrot species,also nectar eaters don’t hybridise with seed eaters

[@cjod33]

Incorrect. Culls of native birds has/ does occur. The main problem in the cities are the people who feed them. I've been part of a number authorised culls over the last twenty years or so. The amount of damage that the sulfer crested cockys do is incredible. The most incredible part about it, is the fact that the people who are causing the problem by feeding etc are the ones who yell n scream the most when the problem that they caused gets fixed up. There should be extreme fines etc for feeding native wildlife.

[@cjod33]

A number of the Australian parrots are considered "invasive". In WA ,The rainbow lorekete for one.

[@user-dl4dn5th3c]

@@cjod33 I thought the government stopped the culling of parrots a long time ago,my mistake ,they must keep it quiet because of all the tree huggers if you know what I mean,wouldn’t it make more sense if instead of killing the parrots the farmers were allowed to export them and earn some extra income from the pet trade?

Here in long island we have feral parrots. It always amazes me when I see a flock of tropical birds flying around being so close to nyc.

[@JunaidWolf3]

Wait Long Island New York that’s were I am

[@livtellez]

​@@JunaidWolf3.... It must be a little flock, just like San Francisco , or Santa Ana California, I believe they have some in Florida too. Nothing alarming or destructive.

[@asha8443]

These are creatures just trying to stay alive. We need to accommodate them rather than destroying nature as we have grossly overdone these past centuries

[@Myaliammar]

Don't kill birds.. Australia will be cursed

[@frogmatt33]

Australia is killing everything.

[@deanaitchison3058]

All these birds except the Indian ring neck are all native and galah is said like ga-lah not gaylah like it says in the video I think that the narrator has never to Australia nor does he even know what it's like here As an Australian I've never seen an Indian ring neck in the wild here, and there not really a problem here except for the sulphur crested cookatoo, those guys will potentially eat your house, they love timber windows and even the putty holding in the glass, but we love our birds here PS if you come to Australia the most dangerous bird is the magpie during breeding season, those fuckers will swoop like kamikaze and even draw blood

Indian ring necks are here in Dubbo

We have thousands of Indian Ring Necked in southern England, especially around London. Great to see but have caused loss of fruit crops .

[@harry.flashman]

You beat me to it. We think of them as cute and an enrichment but theyre numbers will only increase.

[@marosstefak4968]

In Australia, there are invasive species, especially those who can't sell , cows that destroy all the vegetation, they don't mind

[@kylieknight2365]

WTF! You have no idea what you are talking about. How about you find out what your talking about before you open your mouth 🤮

[@majorbruster5916]

1. Cows provide meat and hides that have a monetary value. 2. It is easy to control populations of bovine. 3. Parrots have no agricultural value. 4. You can't milk a parrot. 5. Parrots have little food value. 6. Cows don't nest in crevices and under eaves. 7. Cows actually improve plant diversity on managed meadows.

[@LPKlok]

Here in the Netherlands, ring-necked parakeets have also increased considerably in number in recent years. We now have a total of 22,000 birds. Unfortunately, they are now also moving to the rural areas. What strikes me personally is that birds of prey such as the hawk, instill considerable fear in these animals. So I think that perching posts far above the field and more places for birds of prey to nest could possibly be a solution.

[@mabo3506]

Pets to pests, the history of Australian wildlife.

[@kennythai9132]

Can they export out as a pets trade??

[@kylieknight2365]

Um they are wild! And how is going to pay for trapping them! Please common sense

[@majorbruster5916]

Not to mention the cost of quarantine and vaccination.

HOW COULD THEY LIVE IF THEY DONT EATS FOODS HOW WOULD THEY SURVIVE AND THRIVE IN THIS VAST WORLD THIS WHOLE UNIVERSE FOR ALL OF US.. WE HUMANS ARE SENDED HER FOR LEARN LOVE KINDNESS AND COMPASSION WE NEED TO HELP THOSE BEING TO THRIVES IN THEIR LIVES...

[@kanders7391]

They’re not invasive except the indian ringneck. In California, ravens go after the strawberry crops. They aren’t invasive either. They are native. Farmers use firecrackers to drive them off.

[@SATPetCattleBirdsFishAquarium]

Export parrot and other animals to other countries instead of killing

[@kylieknight2365]

Oh great idea! So they can then invade that country! Well done! 🙄

[@Eelx0]

Ah yes, the animals trying to defend their territory, feed themselves and their young ones is a problem for humanity, but when it comes to mankind abusing, hunting and killing animals for fun, its always a ‘ sport ‘ or ‘ incident ‘.

There are much better vids on this issue.

[@keithburton3713]

This video sucked. It repeated the same information over and over and over.

[@ZERODESTRUCTION]

Very interesting program, but 2 or 3 times as long as needed. Saying the same info many many many times. Somebody needs to learn how to lay out a story in outline form. I do however LOVE the fact that public outcry & Animal Rights groups are a big deterrent to poisoning or shooting them. If you kill them, we will come to their defense. 😅 Glad you noticed, lol.
