Invasives: Myna Education

We’re working to reduce the impact of Common (Indian) Mynas* (Acridotheres tristis) on Bribie Island through public education, community action, and humane control methods. This project brings together concerned residents, local volunteers, and wildlife advocates under the guidance of recognised experts to build awareness and take practical steps to protect our native species. 


Join the Bribie Island/Yarun Indian Myna Education Facebook Group to learn more about controlling this destructive invader!


*The Common (Indian) Myna must not be confused with the Australian native honeyeater, the Noisy Miner Manorina melanocephala ( see photo gallery for ID resources)
