Abstract
The critically endangered Manumea or Tooth-billed pigeon is found only in Samoa and is highly significant in its cultural heritage. The pigeon only lives within and on the edges of intact mature native forest. Its number appear to have dropped dramaitically during the last 10-15 years, mostly through loss of habitat, hunding and possibly due to the impact of introduces invasive predators.
