In working on my latest series of books, Wild About Florida, I became interested in Florida scrub jays and also asked this question. I found one researcher who studied the birds at Archbold Biological Station, the foremost research station when it comes to the Florida scrub jay. Dr. Aurélie Coulon estimated that only five percent of the state's original scrub habitat, the only place these birds can survive in the wild, remains. Her findings determined that there are fewer than 8,000 Florida Scrub-Jays remaining in the world. This was published in the scientific journal, Molecular Ecology in April 2008.

The Florida Scrub-Jay is restricted to the Florida scrub region where population has declined over 90 percent in the 20th century due to habitat destruction.
