In the untouched tropical rainforests of New Guinea one would expect to come across this bird. However this is not so for many areas that have pretty decent large tracts of rainforests still standing. This reminds me of something I read a while ago that goes like this"forests remain standing but are devoid of any wildlife". I cannot recall what the statement was referring to but the plight of this bird reminds one of the lack of wildlife in areas that have been touched by the hand of man and seen the presence of hunters.
This blog gets its name from this bird. While there are many issues that I will cover in this blog, the main emphasis will be on this bird.
Look forward to issues on conservation, wildlife research, education and papua new guinea.
