Majority of the wildlife that are victim to trafficking happens to be exotic birds, while the birds that were repatriated into the Indonesian forests in association of PT Freeport Indonesia comprised of “three large yellow birds of paradise, two black headed Pesquet parrots, nine sulfur crested cockatoos, and one long-tailed parakeet”, informed Freeport-McMoRan.
 
Before releasing the above mentioned birds into their wild habitats they were kept in isolation at the Environmental Department of PTFI. The endemic fauna of Papua is under constant monitoring which are being protected in a consistent manner.
