KINGFISHER

​​​​DONATE NOW!​

​The Guam Kingfisher

     The Guam Kingfisher, (Todiramphus Cinnamonia) once thrived throughout the forest habitats in Palau, Guam. Currently the species is down to only 124 individuals in various U.S. zoos. It is extinct in the wild, and is struggling to reproduce in captivity. It is the worldest rarest bird,according to the IUCN Red List. 

​Endangered, Why?

     Humans introduced an invasive species. In the 1940's-50's, there was an increase of cargo being delivered to the island of Guam. Because of this, a Brown Treesnake (Boiga Irregularis) poplation was born on the island.
