Birds

With about 160 different species Bali Barat National Park is a paradise for bird-watchers.
The Bali starling or Rotschild's Myna (Leucopsar rothschildi) is also the mascot of the Park. It loves a clean habitat and has a short flying range. Being easy to catch, this species needs special care and protection to safeguard its decreasing population..

The Bali Starling

Found only on the Island of Bali, the distinctively beautiful Bali Starling Bird was first discovered in 1910 and adopted as an iconic symbol for Bali in 1991. The bird, locally known as "Jalak Bali" also graces the face of Indonesia's Rp. 200 coin.
The bird is under threat from man's encroachment on its natural habitat and poachers who are able to fetch high prices for live birds sold on the black market. Estimates in 2012 counted only 124 birds living in the wild, spread between the Bali National Park and Nusa Penida Island. Meanwhile, an estimated 1,000 birds are believed to be held illegally in the hands of private collectors.

The wildlife consist mostly of sea and shore birds, the most conspicuous being the Brown Boobies and Lesser Frigate birds. There are two colonies of Terns that nest on a sandy cay at the entrance to Teluk Lumpur (also knownas Mud Bay) whilst the Frigates and Boobies roost on Pulau Burung. The number of White Starlings left in the wild is unknown. Other wildlife consists of the big black long tailed monkeys, leopard cats, deers, wild pigs, reptiles and gigantic lizards.
