New Review Concludes Seabird Numbers Are Still Falling

A new study published by Bird Conservation International warns that the status of many of the world's seabirds has continued to deteriorate, with almost half of the world's populations known or suspected to be in decline. This is more than any other group of birds.

5% of seabirds are critically endangered, including the Balearic Shearwater, which Marinelife have been studying in Lyme Bay.

The albatross family, which has some of its most important breeding colonies on UK overseas territories, is also of particular concern.
