		The Providence Petrel (Pterodroma solandri) is a species that burrows in one location; isolated Lord Howe Island, some 800km from the Australian mainland in the Tasman Sea.
		Graceful and supple in flight, the Providence Petrel has a cumbersome propensity on the ground, making it vulnerable from attack by predators.
		Despite its reasonably copious strength of numbers, the Providence Petrel is deemed to be in a precarious disposition because its breeding is confined to two mountain tops and one tiny islet, and is therefore at great risk from a catastrophe.

		The Steamrollers are long gone and Providence is no longer big enough for the AFL.
		Kurz said the only New England city the AFL is interested in is Boston, but places such as Providence, Portland and Lowell would be prime spots for the af2.
		The idea of the af2 was to keep budgets low — Kurz said the typical operating costs for an AFL team are $4-6 million, while af2 teams have budgets running more along the lines of $1.5 million — and one of those ways was to have teams close enough to bus from game to game.
