Like many of you, birds are very special to me. I connect with them like I don’t any other living creature, save my wife and kids. I photograph them. I’ve covered my body in nothing but bird tattoos.
To see that a THIRD of them have disappeared is like a knife to the heart.
Humans are an invasive species.
The reason that Africa is the only continent with so many giants animals, is that humans hunted almost all of the native mega fauna everywhere else extinct.
