I live in Thailand and Indian mynahs are all over the place. My sister in law caught one that fell out of its nest and taught it to say, " I'm going to the market." in Thai. It escaped its cage and flew over to where an open air funeral for some lady was going on next to a crematorium. It sat up in a tree and started saying "I'm going to the market," over and over again and freaked everybody out.
Even in My place in Nepal. We used to have sparrows around our house when I was a kid. And this guys showed up. Sadly sparrows disappeared in my place and this guys took over.
Same here in Australia... the English sparrows you mentioned were overtaken and kicked out by this invasive species of bird that is not native to Australia.
@@ingridpempeit1180 For a year now I've been feeding only the local 'Australian Mynah Bird' population to encourage them grow and flourish around my home. This has been very effective with Australian Mynah birds 'kicking ass' on the Indian Mynahs enemy who encroach on their territory around my home. For me it's been a successful tactical solution but not a strategic one given it's limited by budget to keep the Aussie Mynah supply lines open with their food and water (birdbath).
With Spring here, if you see myna birds give the native birds in your area a fighting chance. Build or buy a cage specifically designed to target and catch Myna birds (use dried cat/dog food as bait). It is legal. @
1:17 "the Noisy Miner has the yellow ring the whole way around the eye." *NO* , it does not. Where did you get that info from? Even your photo shows and says so: "Yellow beak and eye patch."
They escaped from Toronga Zoo. They bread so prolifically that someone opened the cage and let them out. For a while they just lived in the local area but very quickly spread to all parts of NSW and eastern Australia. I witnessed this as a keen visitor to the zoo and ornithologist. No good dead goes unpunished.
Had a baby dove in my garden and one of these myna's killed it... I was so sad! My office overlooks a garden and I see these myna's chasing all the other peaceful all day.. it really is a terrorist
How do you control/eradicate them? Traps, shoot with an air rifle? What you say in the video is all well and good but it only moves them on to another location.🤨
Nope. Most councils just leave it up to individuals who can legally catch and exterminate them and dispose in rubbish. If enough people do it in neighbourhoods it can be done. RUclips how to Catch and exterminate mynah birds
I have a neighbour that sets traps and kills 2-3 or more of these birds a day (more lately since they multiply very quickly and have overrun the place). They should just setup bounties for killing these birds just like US states, that should help solve the problem. Even small rewards would attract more people to eradicate them just for sport.
Sometimes I don’t understand why people introduce pests and invasive plant species into our country. Me might think it’s good at the time. But they always get out of hands. Then we have to clean up the mess. Look at Gorse or Lantana. They have gotten out of control and are killing so many native plants and harming wildlife. Same with pests we have introduced, rabbits, foxes, myna etc
When I was 9/10 yrs old an Indian Myna attacked my head making me run for my life !! Quite traumatic and unforgettable as a child. An Indian myna attacked my BIL on the head leaving him bleeding.. Yoh !!
A pair of them were building a nest in my front yard roof so I blocked the entrance, they followed me afterwards to my backyard making a huge fuss. I was shocked that they knew what I had done.
make a new one for them. we did that for crows that stole silverware and they gave like half of it back and now scare off squirrels that try to steal bird food.
In India, the Mynahs are pretty timid and few in number. Every 100 yards even in cities have at least a couple of eagles and hawks. And crows and owls and bats and a million other competitors. So the Mynahs get bullied and are quite jumpy unlike other confident birds who aren't that scared of humans. @@lordanderson8090
If that indian myna live here in the philipines it will be endangered for sure.lot for hunter will catch you and will be source of living.they will sell that for sure.
When this COVID-19 crisis is over, local councils (with an excessive population of Indian Mynah birds) should actively sponsor the services of these Filipino bird assassins. These 'Pinoy Death Squads' using their slingshots and blowguns would eliminate the Indian Mynahs effectively as mentioned.

These birds are not native to Australia. They are agressive and kill other native bird species that were here before the Indian Myna Bird was introduced to Australia. They may make nice pets in your native country but they are not welcome here in Australia and must be humanly erradicated from Australia to allow the native bird species to survive.

Everything you're listing about mynas are humans in a nutshell. The greatest invasive species of all time! Lest we forget it was humans that took them there in the first place.
Noisy Miner birds most certainly do hang around in large flocks. They are just as vicious in chasing away native birds as the Indian Mynas. I've seen a pack of 20 ganging up on a baby parrot here, as well as murdering blue tongued lizards. They're both a pain in the arse.
Even after the wildlife expert advises the Indian Myna Bird is an invasive species and kills other native Australian birds, you say they are "not dangerous or aggressive at all". Damn you...
@@davidpalmer9780 what a level of thinking. there are no boundaries as for as any animal or bird concerned,entire earth belongs to them, you are talking as if those are born only in India and flying to your country to torture you. birds migrate from once place (country) to other places. if everyone start thinking like you then birds will become extincts in few years. entire human race itself is danger to this earth who are putting atom bombs, leaving poisonous waste to water and air. now you know whom to eradicate.grow up first.
@@supersprit5733 I understand you wish to support the Indian Myna Bird as it is native to your country but you must realise the bird never flew to Australia as you said it did. It is an introduced species that has had a major adverse impact on native Australian bird wildlife. It's you who needs to grow up and educate yourself on this bird. Also... come back when you have learnt to construct an arguement based on facts too. Even the title of the video names the bird "A Pest Species" and you attempt to contradict that with your comment. Good luck.
@@davidpalmer9780 i dont need educate on any bird. first learn some humanity you said i want to support Indian Myna, i support every bird on this earth. there is company in USA called Indian Motocycle which produces bikes called Indian that does not mean bike is Indian country origin. similarly about this bird i dont know origin of this bird nor u. go and read your comments again. you are no one to decide which bird is native and which is a foreign, they just migrate from place to place. you cannot exactly say which is Australian and which is Indian. for some period you are seeing some species of birds around you that does not mean that is native. you are stating Indian mynas are making your native birds to vanish that is ridiculous. birds themself decide where to live, how long, when to migrate, where to migrate. i wonder about your definition of introduced species, wildlife belongs to every bird (and animal) species. check yourself what is the meaning of pest. if anything which is troubling you or some community go and do complaint to your govt authority as for as pest species concerned.
Noisy miners are aggressive and territorial, but they stick to their native habitats. Indian mynahs have no native habitat here *because they aren't native.* They therefore commandeer the habitats of native wildlife. Indian mynahs don't establish an equilibrium, whereas noisy mynahs do. Don't you see?
RSPCA say more investigations need to be done before they will say they are pests .. what a cop out. Who is going to do these investigations and pay for them? My eyes see these pests everywhere and as the Australian Government says it is legal for anyone to catch and exterminate myna birds ethically go for it.
Did you guys solve your overpopulation problem? Hunger problem? Poverty problem? Caste system problem? Corruption problem? Education access problem? ....the thousands of other problems causing your people to run to other countries for visas? No? Well go solve those first before peeping over your fence and telling other countries what to do.

what the fuck ... Are you gonna put visa passport system for the birds now??? Myna is also belongs from a few bird species who can talk and sing.. They are friendly and easily became friends of humans ..
They might be native in India but they are a pest in Australia because they drive out smaller honey eaters. They have literally taken over whole areas and destroyed local habitats here.

Literally Same in our yard 😂 They do bully the pigeons a bit but it doesn’t deter them anyway. lol I think they’re cute, and very smart. My dad was feeding 4 baby magpies daily for a few weeks recently (while their mama watched close by) and they didn’t ever bully them or even go near them honestly. Even when a crow comes I see the myna birds sort of back away respectfully and return once the crow has left. This is the first I’ve heard of them being pests. Having all these incredible birds visit your back yard is one the best parts of living in Australia, brings so much joy to us!
@@BibleStorm Native plants (and maybe native animals) can be pests in their own country, if in the wrong part of their country. Humans are even pests in our native Africa, as well as worldwide.
How the hell r u people killing Mynah! This birds is incredible. When they did there job u people now want to kill them! This birds is unbelievable!! U guys r monster
I’m from Sydney and I protect Indian mynas within the city and suburban boundaries however have set up traps at in the countryside and more rural areas and have relocated the birds to the city and so far the process is working. No need to kill these birds just control them (:
Your motives defy any logic..So who protects the native birds when the Indian myna's are killing off the native birds in Sydney. You do realise they are a pest, they should not be here, and must be eradicated as they cause more harm than good
You just do not get the message. You are harming animals. You are destroying entire species of animals and plants, and the survival of our planet, with your bloody stupid actions helping introduced pests! *STOP IT* !
They are both aggressive species, but the Indian Mynas are invasive; as the video said. They are not native and are pushing out native birds. You getting triggered and demanding this get taken down isn't going to change hard facts.
I don't care about noisy miners I care about common mynas. You are getting triggered,Nabzarella Dare. Go away. I had pet common mynas and I realise them so they will have a happy life. I'll take care of common mynas not your noisy pest. GET OUT!!!!

John sir/mam , dude the bird isnt a pest. There is no ctv evidence to suggest it scares away native birds. Much more the opposite. The NOISY native miner bird is a pest and it can be described as grey with a yellow beak. This is so racist that we are treating an indigenous bird as a second class citizen. How about about you leave Australia and get deported or some shiz because ur as useless as an asshole with taste buds. You have no contention or evidence whatsoever to back your claim . As a bird watcher I have video evidence to suggest that it poses no harm whatsoever other than the ability to recall human dialogue, make beautiful noises and be presented with a gorgeous set of colors- brown , black and white under wing.
Beth Harris, the noisy miners are the real Australian pest. Do you want to kill the noisy miners? Myna birds are cute and respectful and they don't harm other birds. Tell those people who are wanting to be rude to you, tell then to get out, not me, those people.
You are right. They should delete this video because common myna are beautiful and kind not the noisy miner because they are pest. I love common myna not noisy pest.
It's NOT misinformation at all. Do you WANT native Australian birds and possums to be killed? Because Indian mynahs are exactly how native Australian fauna get killed.

Lol.. Here in india, I am rarely seeing one. I think crows, eagles, cats & Mongoose are regulating their growth.
Come out from home 😂😂😂
Sembra la storia della nostra specie :(
I have a bird like that! Wow!
If you have brown myna birds in your area tell everyone to get a trap and learn how to use it its not hard
Noisy Miner birds most certainly do hang around in large flocks. They are just as vicious in chasing away native birds as the Indian Mynas. I've seen a pack of 20 ganging up on a baby parrot here, as well as murdering blue tongued lizards. They're both a pain in the arse.
dam you my indian myna bird is very affectionate hes not dangerous or aggressive at all
Sofia Muhammad yes ur rite
Even after the wildlife expert advises the Indian Myna Bird is an invasive species and kills other native Australian birds, you say they are "not dangerous or aggressive at all". Damn you...
@@davidpalmer9780 what a level of thinking. there are no boundaries as for as any animal or bird concerned,entire earth belongs to them, you are talking as if those are born only in India and flying to your country to torture you. birds migrate from once place (country) to other places. if everyone start thinking like you then birds will become extincts in few years. entire human race itself is danger to this earth who are putting atom bombs, leaving poisonous waste to water and air. now you know whom to eradicate.grow up first.
@@supersprit5733 I understand you wish to support the Indian Myna Bird as it is native to your country but you must realise the bird never flew to Australia as you said it did. It is an introduced species that has had a major adverse impact on native Australian bird wildlife. It's you who needs to grow up and educate yourself on this bird. Also... come back when you have learnt to construct an arguement based on facts too. Even the title of the video names the bird "A Pest Species" and you attempt to contradict that with your comment. Good luck.
@@davidpalmer9780 i dont need educate on any bird. first learn some humanity you said i want to support Indian Myna, i support every bird on this earth. there is company in USA called Indian Motocycle which produces bikes called Indian that does not mean bike is Indian country origin. similarly about this bird i dont know origin of this bird nor u. go and read your comments again. you are no one to decide which bird is native and which is a foreign, they just migrate from place to place. you cannot exactly say which is Australian and which is Indian. for some period you are seeing some species of birds around you that does not mean that is native. you are stating Indian mynas are making your native birds to vanish that is ridiculous. birds themself decide where to live, how long, when to migrate, where to migrate. i wonder about your definition of introduced species, wildlife belongs to every bird (and animal) species. check yourself what is the meaning of pest. if anything which is troubling you or some community go and do complaint to your govt authority as for as pest species concerned.
This is actually inaccurate, noisy miners are more aggressive and recent studies have shown that they are highly territorial.
But the Indian myna is INTRODUCED
Bullshit. I know for a fact that Indian Mynas in my area are thousands of times more of a problem! Stop parroting BULLSHIT! fucking idiot.
Noisy miners are aggressive and territorial, but they stick to their native habitats. Indian mynahs have no native habitat here *because they aren't native.* They therefore commandeer the habitats of native wildlife. Indian mynahs don't establish an equilibrium, whereas noisy mynahs do. Don't you see?
The RSPCA don't even class these birds as pests.
And they were introduced to control insects.
ITS A PEST
You are delusional. They bully other birds. They ALSO EAT MY PET BIRDS FOOD
@@mitchie747 well you're obviously not looking after your pet birds properly.
@@mitchie747 I'm quite sure the RSPCA know more about it than you. Writing in capitals is no evidence.
RSPCA say more investigations need to be done before they will say they are pests .. what a cop out. Who is going to do these investigations and pay for them? My eyes see these pests everywhere and as the Australian Government says it is legal for anyone to catch and exterminate myna birds ethically go for it.
Did u guys solved rat n mice problem. Go solved that first then do this.
Did you guys solve your overpopulation problem? Hunger problem? Poverty problem? Caste system problem? Corruption problem? Education access problem? ....the thousands of other problems causing your people to run to other countries for visas?
No? Well go solve those first before peeping over your fence and telling other countries what to do.
@@ibendover4817we solved everything you little shit,in upcoming few years you will beg from us.
Human Should relocate
And all the other birds too.
Its an Irony that Australians calling the mynah invasive, remember the aboriginals?
Why didn't the Aboriginals defend their territory then?
very true hypocrites
@@Hustlin87 no technology, disease crippled their leadership abilities. they tried to in many places, but difficiulties fighting a modernized army with firearms would of made it impossible; see American Indian subjugation 1850-1880
@@fakejameh So, isnt that just the way of the world? (Everywhere) The strong do what they want, the weak do what they can?
Lol they would have argued to cancel their visas and send them back same rhetoric used for immigrants
Brought birds for pest control and call them the pest and launch a program to control the pest birds and bring birds again to control the pest ... CYCLE ... such a damn idea....
bird breeders and sellers, especially in that locality are a bigger threat to birds than the Myna- this is a ridiculous excuse by council rangers- look outside the box
what the fuck ... Are you gonna put visa passport system for the birds now??? Myna is also belongs from a few bird species who can talk and sing.. They are friendly and easily became friends of humans ..
They might be native in India but they are a pest in Australia because they drive out smaller honey eaters. They have literally taken over whole areas and destroyed local habitats here.
@@wyattoutlaw2370 Actually the dinosaurs ware native there. Why not you humans leave that place for dinosaurs . Mentally sick animal eater peoples. get lost
Because there ugly and shit 💩 everywhere and they are not Aussie birds

YALL SO CRUEL
I have Myna bird couple living in my roof in harmony with Rainbow lorikeets willy wagtails finches starlings cocatooes and kookaburras so I say BULLSHIT !
I agree us humans are the reall problems to the environment.
Literally Same in our yard 😂
They do bully the pigeons a bit but it doesn’t deter them anyway. lol
I think they’re cute, and very smart.
My dad was feeding 4 baby magpies daily for a few weeks recently (while their mama watched close by) and they didn’t ever bully them or even go near them honestly. Even when a crow comes I see the myna birds sort of back away respectfully and return once the crow has left.
This is the first I’ve heard of them being pests.
Having all these incredible birds visit your back yard is one the best parts of living in Australia, brings so much joy to us!
The fact you call yourself the "Down Under Thunder" and can't even spell cockatoo says a lot about you
@@ElizabethSotiriayour intelligence is lacking.
@@glazed6098start by removing yourself so we don’t have to hear you cry
So many questions... a few a sentence...
What do you mean?
wht abt crows arent they invasive n killing other birds.
I think they call them Australian Raven. How can they be a native and a pest?
Natives aren't pests.
@@BibleStorm Native plants (and maybe native animals) can be pests in their own country, if in the wrong part of their country.
Humans are even pests in our native Africa, as well as worldwide.
Do you not understand why Indian Mynas are a problem?
How the hell r u people killing Mynah! This birds is incredible. When they did there job u people now want to kill them!
This birds is unbelievable!!
U guys r monster
These birds are a pest, they kill native birds
GO live on a small island overrun by Indian mynahs,you'll soon change your mind.
I’m from Sydney and I protect Indian mynas within the city and suburban boundaries however have set up traps at in the countryside and more rural areas and have relocated the birds to the city and so far the process is working. No need to kill these birds just control them (:
That's right all birds are beautiful and they have feelings too
Idiots
Your motives defy any logic..So who protects the native birds when the Indian myna's are killing off the native birds in Sydney. You do realise they are a pest, they should not be here, and must be eradicated as they cause more harm than good
What part of Sydney? I have killed 443 Indian Mynas in the last 20 years. They are so bloody noisy in Spring and Summer, and eat my fruit.
You just do not get the message. You are harming animals. You are destroying entire species of animals and plants, and the survival of our planet, with your bloody stupid actions helping introduced pests! *STOP IT* !
Very lovely birds 🐦 😊
Beautiful vedio dear friend ❤ 😘 😍
No
Terrorist birds bad birds👎
Noisy miners are the Australian pest not common mynas
They are both aggressive species, but the Indian Mynas are invasive; as the video said. They are not native and are pushing out native birds. You getting triggered and demanding this get taken down isn't going to change hard facts.
I don't care about noisy miners I care about common mynas. You are getting triggered,Nabzarella Dare. Go away. I had pet common mynas and I realise them so they will have a happy life. I'll take care of common mynas not your noisy pest. GET OUT!!!!
Oh shut up with your fake facts with no evidence. You probably drive a taxi. Your opinion is less valuable than qualified professionals. Now go off and deliver your uber eats orders before you get more 1 star ratings from angry customers.

@@syedanisuzzaman2286 You have mental problems. Looking at broken people like you makes me grateful that my parents didn't fail at raising a well adjusted person just like your parents failed at raising you.
You're in here pretending to care about birds but are upset just because the species has the word 'India' in it and people are calling pests and getting rid of it. You somehow think it makes your country bad, when in fact YOU the one making your country look like a joke with how you are conducting yourself here. You people have done more harm to your own wildlife with your overpopulation and pollution so don't come here pretending to care about animals.
But please continue to yell like a mental patient spamming 20 emojis in every comment so people will see the true nature of your country. Also I just spoke with my neighbour this morning, he captured 2 of these pest birds in his traps yesterday and exterminated them today :)
THIS BIRD IS NOT A PEST!!! THE NOISY NATIVE MINER IS A PESY. THIS LADY HAD NO IDEA WHAT SHE IS TALKING ABOUT. THE INDAN MYNA IS NOT A PEST!!!
It is a pest in Australia.. because it drives out local native species.
Beth, you are an idiot. Get out of my country.
John sir/mam , dude the bird isnt a pest. There is no ctv evidence to suggest it scares away native birds. Much more the opposite. The NOISY native miner bird is a pest and it can be described as grey with a yellow beak. This is so racist that we are treating an indigenous bird as a second class citizen. How about about you leave Australia and get deported or some shiz because ur as useless as an asshole with taste buds.
You have no contention or evidence whatsoever to back your claim . As a bird watcher I have video evidence to suggest that it poses no harm whatsoever other than the ability to recall human dialogue, make beautiful noises and be presented with a gorgeous set of colors- brown , black and white under wing.
First do your research, they are a pest
Beth Harris, the noisy miners are the real Australian pest. Do you want to kill the noisy miners? Myna birds are cute and respectful and they don't harm other birds. Tell those people who are wanting to be rude to you, tell then to get out, not me, those people.
Pesky Indians, I mean Mynas.

_"Shall not kill"_
Tell that to the Indian mynahs that're responsible for the killing of native possums and birdlife, then.
@Banyule City Council, please delte the video, its misinformation,
It's NOT misinformation at all. Do you WANT native Australian birds and possums to be killed? Because Indian mynahs are exactly how native Australian fauna get killed.
