Seychelles Parakeet
Psittacula wardi
The Seychelles parakeet or Seychelles island parrot (Psittacula wardi) is an extinct species of parrot which was endemic to the Seychelles group in the Indian Ocean. It resembled the Alexandrine parakeet but was smaller and lacked the pink colour in its collar. The species is suspected to have become extinct due to intense persecution by farmers and coconut plantation owners.
