Currumbin Wildlife Sanctuary has been involved in Eastern Bristlebird conservation for more than 10 years.
The Eastern Bristlebird is listed as Endangered. As a result of habitat loss, degradation and the 2019/2020 bushfires, the remaining Eastern Bristlebirds are now fragmented into three separate populations spread from Queensland to South Australia.
Through hard work and dedication by multiple staff and agencies, including Currumbin Wildlife Sanctuary, Eastern Bristlebirds are slowly being brought back from the brink of extinction!
But we can’t do it alone. You can help by donating or purchasing one of these much needed wish list items:

There is a seriously small population of Eastern Bristlebirds left in the wild. A specialist care breeding program is essential in the case of this critically endangered bird, so we have come together with NSW National Parks and Wildlife Service to save this species.
Watch the fascinating technique used to catch Eastern Bristlebirds for the specialist care breeding program, learn what stimulates their natural breeding and find out why even their poo plays a part in saving this critically endangered bird.
