World Endangered Species Day

Event/World Endangered Species Day

Sunday the 11th is World Endangered Species Day. Far from mythical species like gorillas, species well-known to the population in France are classified as "vulnerable" in our territory. This is the case for many passerines like goldfinches or bullfinches whose young eat insects destroyed by insecticides. The beautiful kingfishers have their habitat threatened by water pollution, the larks that enchant our fields are victims of intensive agriculture, the ringed plovers see their nests on sandbanks disturbed by humans and dogs. Not to mention cranes, greylag geese, turtle doves, and, apart from birds, all the frogs that are becoming feminized because of pesticides that act as an analogue of estrogen.
