The Long-tailed Parakeet is threatened by habitat loss due to deforestation and the illegal pet trade. While specific recovery programs are limited, conservation efforts focus on protecting its remaining forest habitats. Responsible safari tourism helps by raising awareness, providing economic incentives for local communities to protect wildlife and their habitats, and funding conservation initiatives through park fees.
The long-tailed parakeet or Burung Bayan Nuri in Malay is a parakeet endemic to the regions of Andaman and Nicobar Islands, Sumatra, Borneo and Peninsular Malaysia. It is allopatric with the congener, the Red-breasted parakeet, Psittacula alexandri, except in the Andaman Islands where they occur together.
