When i grow up and become a veterinarian i want to save my local birds here in the philippines especialy philippine eagles and katala or redvented cockatoo
The Philippines will surely benefit of your wildlife veterinary/conservation work! We wish you all the best for your endeavours. Check out this local NGO doing important conservation work on the Philippine Cockatoo: katalafoundation.org
I've been in Indonesia for 3 years now. Sadly they catch and cage almost everything that moves. It's rare to see a beautiful wild bird. They're all in cages on people's porches. So much more education has to be done to help people understand that if they keep it up there will be nothing left to put in a cage.
FREE MALUKU!!! MERDEKA!! INDONESIA DOES NOT GIVE A SHIT ABOUT MALUKU AND PAPUA. THEY JUST OCCUPIED OUR ISLANDS, SUCK THE RESOURCES OUT AND BLEED OUR LANDS DRY AND KILL OUR NATURE. SAVE THE RAINFOREST AND THE PROTECTORS
Very informative and enlightening..... Coming from a cockatoo owner in the USA!!!! Those Palm cockatoos are beautiful! *edit* Let it be known the cockatoo I own is a rescue that had a very horrible life before !!!!!!!!!!!
I love the new logo. My only critique is that dear Stewart's voice isn't heard on the film and the fact that he didn't get to participate in this project. He would be so proud of your work and efforts on his behalf since his passing. And ESPECIALLY proud of this beautiful film with all the beauty of the country shown. I am delighted to see these lovely locations that I had only heard about in your reports. Seeing the beauty of the gorgeous landscape is expansive and breathtaking. What a wonderful legacy tribute to Stewart Metz and Indonesia.
Its such a blessing to see Indonesia becoming conservation minded. The Moslem faith is like the old Hebrew faith where a man's wealth was gauged by how big his herds were. Overgrazing followed Moslem conquest wherever it went. The grain fields of North Africa were turned into desert after Islam took over. Even now in Sudan Moslem herders are at war with non Moslem farmers. If the herders win that farmland will be turned into overgrazed desert. Slowly Moslem nomads are beginning to understand that they world has changed and they need to change too. Animals were always seen as just a way to make money but they look around and see those animals are gone.

Its good to see there are people that are taking pride in the abundance of natural wildlife their home countries and communities have and believe it is something that has value in preserving. Like the video said it is difficult when people don't even have enough money or opportunities to provide the basic necessities for their families. In reality these people are also being exploited, being paid $10 for trapping a bird that will eventually pay someone upwards of 15-20k once it reaches the end purchaser.
The pet markets in Indonesia are a huge part of the culture. I don’t understand how when you live in an area with such huge diversity of wildlife, why would you want to keep that in a cage in your home? Just go outside and watch them.
Thanks! Researchers from the Indonesian Parrot Project installed wide plastic sheets around the bottom part of the tree trunks during the nesting season. This method has proven to stop some predators like snakes climbing up onto the nest trees.
Men and women like Stewart and Bonnie that see and have passionate values for flora and fauna like so few of us are the ones that save the world. Bonnie your are a hero as well and so are the indigenous people that changed their trapping history to ecotourism which the best way to earn funds for your personal needs. I can't wait to visit the south Pacific to see the birds. Captive breeding just like germination seeds or rare plants is key to saving all species from the Homo terra-vorus- Earth Eaters amongst us.
The film says that the Sulphur-crested Cockatoo (Cacatua galerita) are native and abundant in Australia. That is a close relative and similar to the Yellow-crested Cockatoo (Cacatua sulphurea) that is indeed only native to Indonesia and Timor Leste.
I have a 40 year old mulaccan cockatoo. I got him from my sister that passed away and she got him from a friend of hers who was very abusive to the bird. I have had the bird only 3 months now and he is finally letting me rub the side of his neck only. He is so sweet and gentle and I love him so much. Thanks for the video. I was looking to see how i can care for the bird and give him all the love he needs to be happy. I feel like he is lonely. Do you think if I buy a little budgie parakeet to keep him company is a good idea since i work a lot ? Any advice would be greatly appreciated. Keep up the good work. Thank you all.
Javier, most important thing is keeping the enclosure and the birds perching water and food bowls extra clean. varied fresh foods that are good for the species you have. The more you vary and offer new thing the more vary their diet will become making the healthier. Enclosure size is critical that any bird has adequate room too fly for exercise. Avian vet visit is a great idea to get blood work done in order to know the health or nutrient deficiency that may be present. Have the vet clip some flight feather some you can take your adopted bird outside under supervision. Take this slow not to frighten the bird. They generally are not really accepting of sudden changes so every change needs time for them to warm up to different exposure to new surrounds and people and other pets. Hope the helps. They are wonderful companions us they trust you. If it does not work out consider offering your Cockatoo to a responsible breeder that hell produce chicks as pets responsible so more more are adults trapped or babies stolen from the parents.
Most of the Cockatoos & Lori’s etc aren’t caught by criminals, they’re caught by poor Papuans and Indonesians to make a living. I’ve been to places with over 100 Palm Cockatoos and they were all wild caught.
That is very true. However, the term “criminal” can be applied to anyone who has committed a crime, whether convicted for the offence or not. It is also true that in most cases this is not an organised crime but more like an opportunistic activity. We have shown this in a recent publication, analysing two decades of data on parrot trade in Indonesia with a criminological model: th-cam.com/video/1GbRyb94qlw/w-d-xo.html
@@WildlifeMessengers The term implies a nefarious gesture. I’ve worked in these areas, and most of the environmental bodies have no idea what’s happening, as police and military simply take bribes to usurp any laws.
Indeed.. better law enforcement would be needed locally, while environmental and wildlife crimes should be taken just as seriously as crimes against humans.
Because the people that actually protect the land and forest - the indigenous Moluccans - are being genocide and oppressed by the occupying Indonesian Republic. Indonesia does not give a sh1t about Maluku - they just want the resources and land to rip it apart and bleed it dry. Maluku is NOT INDONESIA. FREE MALUKU FREE PAPUA
There are plenty of videos on TH-cam of people openly hunting or trapping baby animals for the wildlife pet trade in Indonesia and other areas of south east Asia. Also lots of video footage of people walking around through the various open markets selling wild caught animals.

It is such a beautiful hobby , however nothing is beyond freedom. But please please if you must keep them make sure you have time for them and either you adopt or buy a captive bred bird.
Rather than instantly releasing it to the wild, have the ipp tried breeding or maybe artificial insemination before releasing these birds in the wild to further increase the population? And if it is have they been succesful in that regard?
Artificial insemination before release would do nothing, they breed in pairs, so if the bird has no partner, why would it lay an egg? As for breeding them before release, that's probably already happening.
I always wanted to have a cockatoo but dint had the guts to put them in cage after i have watched how they live free in nature..Pls stop animal cruelty but selling or purchasing this babies .
for me no other way to preserve this species than to legalized these bords by capfurong them and let the breedi them to be sold because if not no one will take care these parrots its lile african love bird it will not be extinct because its continued to be wold as pets and tje proceeds is to maintain the parrot needs like food shelter and vitamins
The parrot pet trade should be banned everywhere. The parrots like orcas are far to intelligent & social to be bought & sold & kept as pets. They are difficult to care for & require huge amounts of time. They're like having a 3 yr old child permanently in need of your attention. Their lifespans are long & they have great difficulty bonding with other than one person. They have no business being kidnapped from their wild homes to be a pet for someone's pleasure.
make hard laws for bird traders and harder lawd for who put them in a cage give them 20 year harder jail animals birds feel pain when we put them in the cage

Exactly. That’s why they say conservation starts by education.
Thanks for your kindness toward this innocent bird.
Our pleasure! Hope we can spread the message to save them in the wild..
I would love to visit this project someday. Thank you for all your hard work to save these beautiful birds!
Please do!

So nice of you
Que lindo trabalho de preservação e conscientização sobre o respeito e a preservação dos animais! Parabéns pelo vídeo!
Thanks very much!
I am watching here from indonesia
It's great work done by you guys .......
Can I know how did you control snakes attack on chiks at above the tree trunk
Thanks! Researchers from the Indonesian Parrot Project installed wide plastic sheets around the bottom part of the tree trunks during the nesting season. This method has proven to stop some predators like snakes climbing up onto the nest trees.
Thank you 🙏
You’re welcome 😊 Thanks for watching!
We need more humans like the good doctor Metz… .

It is such a beautiful hobby , however nothing is beyond freedom. But please please if you must keep them make sure you have time for them and either you adopt or buy a captive bred bird.
Indeed, adopting is much better than buying a new bird, and so avoiding to support the demand of the bird trade.
@@WildlifeMessengers but in my country we cant adopt for free,because in indonesia is still so many illegal parrot

I always wanted to have a cockatoo but dint had the guts to put them in cage after i have watched how they live free in nature..Pls stop animal cruelty but selling or purchasing this babies .
Wish more people were thinking like you, thanks for sharing your experience!
Awareness will do fuck all if the locals can't afford to live and are forced to capture wild life in order to survive
for me no other way to preserve this species than to legalized these bords by capfurong them and let the breedi them to be sold because if not no one will take care these parrots its lile african love bird it will not be extinct because its continued to be wold as pets and tje proceeds is to maintain the parrot needs like food shelter and vitamins
Not only indonesia, its worldwide. We have to STOP buying.
We could not agree more! Thanks for watching, please spread the word!
im from indonesian
Me too
Klau mw beli kakaktua belilah dri para peternak bersertifikat, walau mhal tapi puas dripada beli tngkapan dri alam liar
Please ❤them not in the cage🙏🙏
Hope they won't get caught again
The parrot pet trade should be banned everywhere. The parrots like orcas are far to intelligent & social to be bought & sold & kept as pets. They are difficult to care for & require huge amounts of time. They're like having a 3 yr old child permanently in need of your attention. Their lifespans are long & they have great difficulty bonding with other than one person. They have no business being kidnapped from their wild homes to be a pet for someone's pleasure.
😭😭😭😭
What is the government contribution? It is embarrassing if foreign organizations care more than Indonesians.
MORE PROIBITION MORE HIGH PRECE MORE PRESSION TO CATCH IN THE WILD . THATS STUPID.!!
fucking hunter pity animal we must protect animals
make hard laws for bird traders and harder lawd for who put them in a cage give them 20 year harder jail animals birds feel pain when we put them in the cage
Putting one in jail while another takes his place, yeah, I'm sure that will help
half min watching = bam ad
= fak off
I cant watch this.
