Kookaburras are native to Australia, New Guinea and the Aru Islands, in southeastern Indonesia. They are found naturally in Australia's eastern mainland states (those bordering the Pacific Ocean) of Queensland, New South Wales and Victoria, and have been introduced to the island state of Tasmania. They have also been introduced into New Zealand. All of these countries are in the Pacific.

They are not found in the USA, so are not found in any if the US Pacific states.
