Sirocco

Hatched  March 23, 1997

​

Perhaps the most famous kakapo, Sirocco has become the 'spokesbird' for conservation efforts in New Zealand.

Sirocco is a kakapo living on Codfish Island in New Zealand. He has become very accustomed to human interaction due to an illness he had as a baby that required human intervention. He even 'booms' his mating call for his human friends, but not for other kakapo!

​

Sirocco makes regular trips away from his home to NZ's mainlands to help educate the world about kakapo and togive everyone a chance to interact with one of these incredible birds up close and in person.
