Relative Conservation Status of Bird Orders With Special Attention to Raptors
Frontiers in Ecology and Evolution, 2020 Birds, especially raptors, play important roles in ecosystems. We examine the International Union for the Conservation of Nature’s (IUCN) Red List to determine which orders of birds have proportionally more or fewer species listed as threatened or ...
