If you look at the Presidents Report for 2008-09, you will see that since
the project started Indian Myna numbers have dropped dramatically. when the
project started they were the 3rd most abundant bird in Canberra and at the
time of the report, they'd dropped to the 12th most abundant bird.

That's pretty impressive.


There's another person in Sydney's Hills district who builds Indian Myna traps. He sells
them to councils who then loan them to the public. The number of Indian Mynas around here
has halved over the past few years.
