Dominica’s Mountain Chicken Facing Extinction

Permanent Secretary in the Ministry of Agriculture Dr. Reginald Thomas said that Dominica is at the point of extinction of the Mountain Chicken. 

Dr. Thomas said due to the decline of the species the country was forced to change its national dish. 

Hence, Dr. Thomas said that all is being done to ensure that our national bird will not face extinction. 

As was announced this week the Sisserou Parrot will be kept in Germany at the facility at the Association for the Conservation of Threatened Parrots for breading.
