023 Dani Teixeira Black-cockatoos and Bioacoustics

The Bird Emergency

Reliable information is required in the efforts to conserve endangered species, and collecting that information can be expensive to gather, or may need to be gathered at crucial specific times.

This presented a challenge when studying the endangered Glossy Black-cockatoo population on Kangaroo Is.

Daniella Teixeira brought a new approach to collecting vital information, and using sounds to inform her research.

Hear Danielle explain her work on Glossy and Red-tailed Black-cocktoos and the Malleefowl (she is currently Chair of the National Mallefowl Recovery Team).

Daniella posts updates on Instragram @blackcockatooproject and maintains her own website here.

Daniella has also recently been featured as Scientist of the Month in the Lyric, Poetic, Scientific edition of the beautiful art-science project, Science Write Now. You can check out that feature here.

Currently trying to get some eyes and subscribers on The Bird Emergency on YouTube, so I can put a bit more effort into the video side of things, so if you would like more visual content, please subscribe, and I will watch with interest if that's what you want!
