It should be noted that Australia does have areas of tropical jungle the northeast (though presumably you don't always hear a kookaburra the moment you enter them). Incidentally, the kookaburra's habitat is not limited to jungles either; the only thing it really needs are open bodies of water, as it is, in fact, a species of kingfisher.

One of the StockSoundEffects that pop up whenever films, cartoons or TV series depict a jungle environment with a NoisyNature is the cackling laugh of the kookaburra, which sounds something like: "[[https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=UXA0-YAoo9Q OOOOOO-HOOO-OOO-HOO-HOO-AHAHAHAHA]]" and is often assumed to be a monkey by people unfamiliar with the bird. It doesn't help much that we typically hear the sound without actually seeing the animal making it, thus adding to the confusion. The laugh sounds great and really puts in the right mood for a mysterious adventure set in an impenetrable jungle.
