Talk:Chestnut teal

Protection status
Why does this article say that the chestnut teal is protected when it is least concern? --RoryReloaded (talk) 07:55, 15 March 2008 (UTC)
 * Although it is not endangered, and numbers appear stable, it only occurs in S Australia, so unrestricted hunting could rapidly cause a decline in the numbers of this endemic species. "Protected" doesn't necessarily equate to "endangered". Actually, in most countries all but a few pest species receive some degree of protection, and even quarry species have restrictions on when they can be hunted Jimfbleak (talk) 10:51, 15 March 2008 (UTC)
