Birds Watch
Papua New Guinea hosts one of the world’s richest avifaunas, with 708 identified bird species, including 38 of the 43 known Birds of Paradise. While protected from the millinery trade, they face threats from logging and habitat clearance. Birdwatching opportunities abound in unique, high-altitude locations like Variarata National Park and Mt. Michael.
