The wild population has varied between around 70 to less than 150 in recent years. According to Tasmania's Parks and Wildlife Service, there are currently believed to be less than 200 adult birds remaining. There is no significant captive population. Loss of habitat, disease and loss of nest-sites to introduced bird species, such as starlings, have been blamed for the decline in numbers.
