Eight endangered eastern bristlebird released into the wild

This sweet little cinnamon-coloured bird is critically endangered in north-eastern NSW and South East Queensland, but a partnership between ‪@currumbinwildlifehospital‬ and ‪@nswdcceew‬ is offering hope for this special species.
Eight captive-bred eastern bristlebirds (Dasyornis brachypterus) were recently released in the Border Ranges region, bringing the total number of birds to about 45 from its lowest point of only 15.
