Abstract
Birds are under threat in many parts of the world. Some face the destruction of their habitats; others are the victims of relentless hunting; and still more have been affected by the trade in exotic pets. This book examines the pressures faced by a selection of high-profile species and looks at the measures people are taking to help them. After all, no one wants a repeat of the dodo’s extinction. Illustrated with superb photographs, the book has distribution maps and up-to-date information on status and populations.
