Delegates to the CITES (Convention on International Trade in Endangered Species) conference in Qatar voted down three of four proposals to protect sharks. This really sucks. According to the New York Times.

It's in response to the pathetic CITES conference which basically screwed marine animal protection. The Christian Science Monitor rightly points out that citizens and consumers need to get involved in endangered species protection, because at the CITES level, it's all about money and international politics.

This equates to a loss of US$126 million in gross revenue and from 42,500 to 80,900 fewer hectares of wetland and upland hectares protected.

Thankfully, there are alternatives to what I ended up doing, taking down the feeders, and they are detailed in the second part of the book, where we learn about the development of bird-safe sheet glass and the use of patterns or films on already installed glass windows.

It was the year that I attended the Ornithological Society of New Zealand’s conference in Kaikoura. Conservation, as I have observed before, is interested in protecting the population and the ecosystem over the individual. I mentioned 2008 as the year I became aware of the issue. The news wasn’t good.

I enjoy collecting children’s books about birds and nature that I come across in the expected (book stores) and unexpected (academic library conference reports) places.

The results will inform a vision document to be adopted in July 2011 at a national conference to guide the NWR system for wildlife protection into the next decade and beyond. To that end, the principals have created a terrific site called Conserving the Future: Refuges and the Next Generation to elicit votes and comments.

I was especially interested in “To Hide From God,” the chapter on songbird slaughter and protection in Cyprus. Has it really been 21 years (almost) from the publication of Jonathan Franzen’s New Yorker article, “ Emptying the Skies ,” six years since the documentary with the same name?

It was the first time I went to a wildlife rehabilitators conference. Suzie wrote about her experiences as a bird rehabber in Flyaway: How A Wild Bird Rehabber Sought Adventure and Found Her Wings (2009) and used those experiences as the source for her fictional children’s book, Hawk Hill (1996). There are so many!

The Endangered Species Act of 1973 (“ESA”) protects species of plants and animals threatened with extinction by listing them as either “endangered” or “threatened,” which in turn confers certain legal protections.
