"Global Threat: Migratory Species Facing Extinction Due to Human Impact, UN Report Warns"

The first-ever State of the World's Migratory Species assessment, focusing on 1,189 species, reveals that one in five migratory species is threatened with extinction, with 44% experiencing population declines due to human activities such as habitat destruction, hunting, and pollution. Climate change also poses a threat by altering migration routes and timings. Over 130 countries are meeting in Uzbekistan to address these issues, as iconic species like the monarch butterfly and humpback whale face peril due to unsustainable human activities.
