Woodland birds are increasingly threatened by the impacts of environmental change. As the global population and economy grow, we continue to modify habitat for human use, reducing available nesting and foraging opportunities for birds. In addition, post-European occupation has led to the introduction of alien species, like cats (Felis catus), and the expansion of generalist species, like corvids, resulting in increased predation and competition for vulnerable bird species. To successfully preserve habitats, manage invasive species and conserve both endangered and common-but-declining bird species we need pre-emptive and innovative management strategies that can be implemented now.

巴斯海峡群岛本土灭绝掠食者的营养重新野化可能有益于林地鸟类

林地鸟类越来越受到环境变化影响的威胁。随着全球人口和经济的增长，我们继续改变人类使用的栖息地，减少鸟类的筑巢和觅食机会。此外，后欧洲占领导致引入外来物种，如猫 (Felis catus)，以及鸦科等通才物种的扩张，导致对脆弱鸟类物种的捕食和竞争加剧。为了成功保护栖息地、管理入侵物种并保护濒临灭绝和常见但正在下降的鸟类物种，我们需要现在可以实施的先发制人的创新管理策略。
