The war threatens the existence of some species of birds in Ukraine, warn ornithologists. The actions of the Russian occupiers have a negative impact on the life of birds, forcing them to look for new places for nesting, and some may even be at risk of death due to explosions. However, large birds that have their territories will suffer the most. Scientists express concern that some species may disappear from Ukraine forever.
The negative consequences for the ecosystem are also obvious. Declining populations of some birds can lead to an imbalance in insect populations, which can trigger a chain reaction in the natural system. Conservation of birds and compliance with environmental regulations become extremely important in such conditions.
The final conclusions regarding losses among birds can be made only after the end of the war and the demining of the territories. However, some scientists already believe that the relocation of birds to new territories may be a necessary measure to save them. This process will be difficult, but important for the preservation of the ecosystem.
It is important to note that in recent years, Ukraine has seen the appearance of new species of birds, such as pink flamingos and bluefinches. This indicates the possibility of saving birds that have already disappeared from other regions. Preservation of nature and its diversity requires immediate measures to ensure the existence of birds in Ukraine.
