The Taronga Zoo Education Team is undertaking a project to conserve the endangered Regent Honeyeater (Xanthomyza Phrygia). This species is under threat from habitat degradation and fragmentation due to extensive clearing for agriculture and numbers are estimated to be as low as 1,500 adults. This project aims to engage students from three schools in the Capertee Valley area in conservation efforts and to restore habitats for the native and reintroduced honeyeaters.
