Indian Myna Birds
The Indian Myna has been declared the second greatest threat to native birds after land clearing. It's currently spreading through eastern Australia and its arrival signals a disastrous change to come in local bird populations. This extremely aggressive bird chases out native birds and small tree dwelling marsupials such as feather-tailed gliders.
Dubbed the ‘flying rat' because of its unseemly habits, Myna birds flourish wherever humans live, their populations booming around garbage tips, factories, schools, shopping centres and suburban backyards.
