Common Myna (Indian Myna) Acridotheres tristis
Common Myna
The Common Myna was originally introduced to Australia from Asia to control agricultural
pests. The species is now widespread and is often seen in urban areas around Noosa. There
is concern that they outcompete native animals for food and displace native hollow-nesting
birds. Nuisance behaviours including noise, fouling and congregating around food waste also
cause community concern.
Although Myna is not a scheduled species under the Biosecurity Act 2014, Council has been
helping volunteers to reduce populations through a community trapping program and
partnerships with local wildlife groups to map nesting hotspots.
