Bioacoustics Monitoring of Bird Vocal Behavior for Species Identification, Survey, and Habitat Impact With Implications for Conservation

International Journal of Zoology, Volume 2026, Issue 1, 2026.
Habitat degradation, climate variability, and anthropogenic pressures threaten the ecological integrity of biosphere reserves. Lake Tana, in northwest Ethiopia, a UNESCO‐recognized site of exceptional avifauna biodiversity, is no exception.

Non‐Passerine Birds in Zoos: A Global Approach on Distribution Patterns of Threatened Birds in Zoological Institutions 动物园中非雀形目鸟类:全球动物机构中受威胁鸟类的分布模式研究

Integrative Conservation, Volume 4, Issue 4, Page 600-615, December 2025.
Only 1541 (34.2%) of 4503 recognized non‐passerine bird species are held in ZIMS institutions worldwide. Approximately ~83% of the species kept globally are classified as non‐threatened and ~16% as threatened. To improve the conservation of threatened birds, a shift toward keeping threatened species should be considered within ex situ management ...
