    Threat to endangered species: Today the Pacific rat represents an additional threat to the horned parakeet of Ouvea (see Eunymphicus cornutus in the IUCN Red List of Threatened Species), which is already threatened with extinction because of loss of habitat and capture for the pet trade (Robinet et al. 1998).
