The helmeted friarbird's population has currently been evaluated as stable; however, it is suspected that within the next 10 years the population will decrease by 10%, therefore ultimately classifying the species as vulnerable. [4] The friarbird is quickly becoming closer to extinction with a decrease of ten percent after every generation.
