Statement by Mr. George Aman on World Migratory Bird Day 2020

President of the International Council for Game and Wildlife Conservation (CIC), George Aman

Mr. George Aman
President of the International Council for Game and Wildlife Conservation (CIC) 

We all have a shared responsibility to look after migratory birds, as they rely on us to conserve their breeding areas, stop-over sites and wintering grounds all along the flyway. Hunters also share this responsibility; if we fail to do our job in one area, this will result in consequences for the rest of the world. This is why the work we do in restoring wetlands, and providing resting stops and feeding areas, is critical for the future health of migratory bird populations.
