Save Swift Parrots

If logging does not stop in Swift Parrot breeding and foraging habitat today, the species will go extinct.

The critically endangered Swift Parrot will not survive further destruction of these forests.

Prime Minister Albanese & Tasmanian Premier Rockliff need to declare secure, permanent protection across all Swift Parrot habitat in Tasmania; in the southern forests, on Bruny Island and the east coast.

Dear Prime Minister and Premier,

Please permanently end the logging of Tasmania’s forest habitat of the Swift Parrot and provide secure protection for ALL Swift Parrot habitat.

In 2015 the International Union for Conservation of Nature (IUCN) listed the Swift Parrot as critically endangered due to logging of its habitat and predation by sugar gliders. IUCN recommended that all public lands that support Swift Parrots be placed under secure, permanent conservation management.

In line with Australia’s international commitments, the Environment Protection and Biodiversity Conservation Act 1999 must also be strengthened to provide more effective protection to critically endangered species and ecological communities.

The critically endangered Swift Parrot will not survive further destruction of these forests. 
I ask that you declare secure, permanent protection across ALL Swift Parrot habitat in Tasmania; in the southern forests, on Bruny Island and the east coast.

Swift Parrot breeding habitat, nesting and foraging habitat across Tasmania needs to be protected.

Tasmania's southern forests, Bruny Island, the eastern tiers in NE Tasmania and Wielangta on the east coast are vitally important Swift Parrot habitat.  These forests must be protected from logging if this wonderful bird, the fastest parrot on the planet, is to survive.

Do what is needed for the survival of the Swift Parrot, permanently stop logging in all Swift Parrot breeding habitat, nesting and foraging habitat. Protect this vital habitat in secure reserves.

If you don‘t stop logging swift parrot breeding habitat today, the species will go extinct on your watch.

Your sincerely,
[We’ll insert your name here]
