FACT FILE: BUZZ is a Christmas Island Magnificent Frigate Bird, an aerial kleptoparasitic (fish-stealing!) seabird with a distinctive red throat pouch. The most endangered of  Frigate Bird species with only about 1200 breeding pairs left, Buzz has what it takes o help out a Gang in trouble!   ​

The Zoo's Informants TATTLER, WHISTLER, and BUZZ know a lot about the Gang...!​

​​FACT FILE:​ TATTLER is an Abbott's Booby, a seabird found only on remote Christmas Island.  Mining reduced her island cousins  to only 2500 breeding pairs. One day she met a Smuggler who had very different plans for her and her friends!

FACT FILE: WHISTLER is a Central Australian Superb Lyrebird. His  vocal repertoire ranges from birdsongs to chainsaws. Lyrebirds were hunted to near extinction in the late 20th century as decorations for hats and fans, but the Gang had uses for Whistler's vocal skills.
