No, it is not illegal. It is, in fact legal to kill them as long as it is done humanely (same as Muscovy ducks). But catching an adult Quaker is asking for much heartache for yourself and the bird. You would be taking it from its mate and possibly its babies (depending on the time of year). Better to take a baby from the nest, then you'll be doing the native birds a favor by reducing the population without owning an untamable adult Quaker.

In general, it's not legal to catch wild parrots, no matter if they are from the region or not. You might want to call the local humane society, or even the zoology department at the nearest university--or even the police department--(in that order) and find out for sure.

i do not recognize why all those who responded certain were given thumbs down. perhaps someone round the following has not something better to do? In Australia certain it really is prohibited that you would possibly want to take a wild stuck parrot & save it as a puppy (technically) you're meant to have a flora and fauna license to look after wild parrots (rehabilitate & launch them). particular places or human beings can word for a license to capture parrots to save or promote or do with what they want. i guess it would want to also remember on the state or territory as I doubt you would possibly want to attempt this everywhere in Australia. maximum folk in Australia do take in a wild stuck parrot that has been injured & won't be able to be placed again into the wild, it fairly is appropriate. yet taking a wild parrot it fairly is healthful faraway from this is flock to advance as a puppy isn't acceptable. you may contact your interior reach council & ask for suggestion on having the birds bumped off & positioned someplace else in the experience that they seem to be a nuisance or you may disguise your fruit timber with mesh it really is what maximum folk do to save any birds from eating the fruit :)

No they most like would be happy for you to catch and keep a few.
It is a non-native animal that is taking food that should be available for native species.
Check with your local animal control
