Bringing the orange-bellied parrot back from the brink

Whenever a species population drops below 100, the federal government makes a phone call to Carolyn Hogg. As a Professor of Biodiversity and Conservation, her focus is currently set on the orange-bellied parrot which is predicted to be extinct before 2040. But according to a new report that Professor Hog has co-authored, there might be a way to rescue this critically endangered species.  Guest: Carolyn Hogg, Professor of Biodiversity and Conservation and co-lead of the Australasian Wildlife Genomics Group, the University of Sydney Producer: Kelly-Anne Taylor
