U.S. Bird Populations Declining Rapidly, 112 Species at ‘Tipping Point’

A new report warns that U.S. bird populations are facing alarming declines, with 112 species identified as having reached a “tipping point” due to factors like habitat loss and climate change. Among them, 42 species are in critical danger, with steep population declines and dangerously low numbers.

Scientists emphasize the urgent need for conservation efforts to protect these birds and their ecosystems, warning that continued losses could have serious ecological consequences.
