Experiences from mapping birds
Colin Bibby
BirdLife International
A conservation rationale
• Establish priorities
Species - Red Lists etc
Habitats, biomes - ecosystem approach
Key sites - protected areas etc
• Diagnose threats
• Plan actions
• Take actions
• Monitor and feedback
Red listing data requirements
• Range (extent of occurrence or area of occupancy)
• Numbers (density x range)
• Trends (in numbers or range)
• Habitats may help to infer the above
