Survival by Degrees: Audubon’s 389 Bird Species on the Brink
As climate change progresses, birds’ habitats will shift, forcing them to relocate. Audubon scientists analyzed 140 million bird observations to map the current ranges of 604 North American species, then used climate models to predict future shifts. The findings indicate that many species will struggle to find suitable habitats, potentially threatening their survival.
