Cultural drivers for wildlife crime and trade are my cup of tea. Conservation breeding by day, sleeping by night. 🇲🇨

The two challenges that make @CikanangaF's work necessary are continued habitat loss and the capture of wild songbirds for the bird trade. Both of these issues have tangible solutions, despite their size, and we can turn the situation around 👇 chesterzoo.org/what-we-do/our…

At @CikanangaF, West Java, you can find a vital hub of conservation breeding for four of the planet's most threatened songbirds 🐦 The achievements here mean that when safe habitat is available once more, we will be able to return birdsong to the silent forests of Indonesia 🎶

1/2 Today we want to share a very special photo of the Mount Slamet sub-species (Garrulax rufifrons slamatensis) of Rufous-fronted #Laughingthrush at @CikanangaF. This chick represents the first time successful ex-situ #conservation #breeding of this subspecies!

2/2 This taxon is shy, sensitive and challenging to breed. Nevertheless, @CikanangaF professional team was able to breed it in their facility. Since leaving its nest, the bird has become stronger and is now very active around the aviary with its parents. photos by @CikanangaF

3/3 Although conservation breeding of Rufous-fronted Laughingthrushes is challenging, @CikanangaF continue making progress. During the last breeding season, 8 chicks hatched from 2 different pairs, while multiple pairs built nests and incubated for the first time. photo: J.Beilby

1/2 Rufous-fronted Laughingthrush is a critically endangered #songbird endemic to Java. @CikanangaF has worked with this bird for almost a decade, but its breeding remains challenging. photo by J.Beilby
