Green racket-tail

The green racket-tail (Prioniturus luconensis) is an endemicparrot of the Philippines where it is found on Luzon and Marinduque. This species was once common, but is rapidly declining and is currently classified as endangered due to lowland deforestation and capture for cage-bird trade. The population is now estimated to be just 300 - 800 mature individuals and is continuing to decline with many local extinctions in its former range.

It is illegal to hunt, capture, or keep Green racket-tails and any other wild bird in the Philippines under Philippine Law RA 9147.
