Subject: Few birds in Madagascar
I passed on to Greg Calvert, a biologist and birdwatcher from
Townsville, the question about why there are so few readily accessible
birds in Madagascar. He replied, " I have also been birding in
Madagascar. The reason that Madagascar has so few birds is that 90% of
their forests have been burnt and chopped down and the remaining 10% is
being hacked down as we speak."
Happy birding,
Joan Wharton (Cherrybrook, Sydney)
