Scientific name: Acrocephalus Aequinoctialis
This is an endangered species.
Ecological role: Maintains prey/predator population. Helps maintain the spread of a species of weed by dispersing certain seeds as well as feasting on the plant.
In danger due to threat from predatorial rat (rattus spp.) and cat species (Felis catus), hunting by children and adults on the island, loss of trees (trumpet tree) that provide food and habitat loss due to sudden and ill-planned immigration.
Proposed conservation methods include:
Gather information about population decline, find a suitable habitat.
Protection of their habitats from fire and human intervention.
Remove species of rats. Rat trapping.
Oversee if the birds can be moved to another location.
