One in nine migratory bird species is threatened with extinction

The 2024 "State of the World's Birds" report, released by BirdLife International, reveals that one in nine migratory bird species is threatened with extinction, with 45% of the world's 1,843 migratory species in decline. The spoon-billed sandpiper has become the first bird to disappear from Eurasia and Africa in recent centuries. The Asian-Australasian flyway is the most affected (53% decline), while the African-Eurasian flyway — which passes through Portugal — shows a 41% decline. The main threats are invasive species, intensive agriculture, climate change, illegal hunting and pollution. Governments and organisations gathered at the Nairobi Summit signed the Nairobi Declaration to protect birds and habitats along migratory routes.
