- Description
The cartoon shows a museum exhibit of an extinct species; it is an Australian professor wearing a large hat with corks and being assailed by dozens of flies. He wears a white coat that is covered with the footprints of a bird and holds a notice that reads 'Cark apo'; below is text that reads 'Australiass Scientestes Extinctus circa 2011, Habitat - University of Adelaide - Wiped out by the last remaining band of marauding kakapo'. Context - University of Adelaide scientist Cory Bradshaw this week that the "wonderfully weird" kakapo was among endangered species that were beyond saving but kakapo chick expert Dr Lisa Argilla says 'I don't think they are - DOC are doing such a good job, In 10 years they've managed to more than double the population, and also the big breeding seasons are happening closer and closer together, and there's now a higher percentage of females.'
