Bird Trade.

Hello!
I would wish to have another more pleasant subject to write about, today...But, the illegal bird trade in Brazil is very serious...I hope this article can ilustrate this sad situation & eventually, help in finding a solution...
The illegal bird trade in Brazil is huge. And, it is getting worst and worst. Reason: Since there is deforestation and the birds are disapering the prices for birds are getting higher and higher, so the pressure to capture them...
I strongly suggest to birders, willing to visit Brazil to search (On the Net...)for serious organizations that are working to preserve Nature & its birds & make a donation. Surely, they will fell much better birding in Brazil, knowing that those birds they are watching are getting his contribution for their survival.
May everyone have a great day & wonderful week!
