Habitat Loss
Severe tropical cyclones damage vegetation. In April 2001, Cyclone Walter demolished 14% of North Keeling Island’s trees and felled 61% of the canopy. Such weather events have a considerable detrimental effect on the breeding success of seabird populations, but must be considered part of the natural cycle.
