Threats facing migratory species.

Bird migration is one of the great wonders of the natural world. Migration is a huge feat of endurance requiring great strength and stamina. However, today birds face additional threats caused by human activity. Hungry, exhausted birds may arrive at a stopover site, only to find that it has been destroyed by farming or urbanisation. Every year, millions of birds are illegally killed by hunters, or collide with man-made structures such as powerlines. Climate change is causing habitats to shift or disappear.

Join us to learn More about Birds Migration, the strategies they use to travel long distances and the threats they are facing when they cross the Middle East region. Many organisations at the national and global levels are taking serious actions to mitigate the impacts facing migratory species,
