| Tell me about the Spotted Ground Thrush Project...
The Spotted Ground Thrush (Zoothera guttata) is an endangered & endemic bird species. The population is in continual decline due to its restricted and highly fragmented habitat - forests which are severely threatened due to human encroachment; clearing for agriculture, unsustainable land use and logging. Only 6.7% of the original forest area remains.
The BirdLife Africa International Partnership recognised that the limited knowledge about the species is a critical problem hindering its conservation, coupled with a general lack of awareness among the local communities.
In collaboration with CS Wildlife Fund we are raising funds for:
- Design & development of educational material about the plight of this species
- Dissemination of educational material to local communities
- Awareness raising regarding values of the forest & the importance of sustainable management
- Workshops for local communities
