Carnaby’s Black-Cockatoo is endemic in the south-west of Western Australia. It is a large, dull black cockatoo and one of Australia’s five black cockatoo species. The population of this cockatoo has declined because of habitat degradation. Trees with suitable breeding hollows are rapidly being cleared and are in short supply. Research has shown that they need remnants of native vegetation within 12 kilometres of their nesting sites to raise healthy young.
