It depends on the species. There are four known species of kookaburra: two in Australia and two on the island of New Guinea and some Indonesian islands. Of these, the best known is the Laughing kookaburra. While it is impossible to find an accurate count of Laughing kookaburras, as it is classified as "common", closest estimates put current figures at around 800,000 (eight hundred thousand).
