About the poster

Could beak and feather disease cause some of our native parrots to become extinct?

Beak and feather disease, or Psittacine circoviral disease, is caused by a virus that kills the feather and beak cells of parrots. The disease is a serious threat to some of Australia's threatened parrots.
