According to the Sibley Guide to Bird Life & Behavior, human population growth, habitat change, and shooting are what endanger worldwide kingfisher populations the most. Specifically, species which nest in the sides of stream banks are left without habitat when streams are altered. Additionally, the Laughing Kookaburra in Australia is threatened from consuming Cane Toads. These non-native and very invasive toads have poison glands which kill the bird when it tries to eat it.
