Scientists have taken control of 15 species of birds whose fate is worrying.
Five of them are already listed in the country's Red Book, including the black eagle and the golden eagle, and are in danger of extinction. The other ten are at risk of getting there. One of the main tasks is to prevent the extinction of these species in the European part of Russia. For this purpose, they started a project to preserve them and he received a grant from the Presidential Foundation for Nature.
The main threats to these birds are related to humans. Black-throated loons are killed in fishing nets. And people disturb the golden eagles in the places where they nest, says biologist Alexander Mishchenko: in the past these marshes were almost inaccessible to humans, now they get there in all-terrain vehicles. What can be done to save rare and vulnerable birds, and what simple things we can all do to help:.
