Description
The issue that this project seeks to address is the declining population of charcoal birds due to the lack of breeding successes and the decline of their habitats in Polesie Lubelskie. Droughts, drainage and shrinkage of wetlands, grasslands and pastures, disappearance of water pools, agriculture intensification, predation of the fox and the American wizon, and lack of comprehensive protection are some of the main phenomena contributing to this issue.
The situation of plover birds breeding in Polesie Lubelskie is unstable as the numbers are low and subject to large fluctuations. Enlarging and caring for the maintenance of habitats in a proper condition, collecting eggs and storing them in incubators until hatching and giving the hatched birds parents are necessary activities to help preserve bird species. When this is not possible, aviary breeding and the release of young birds into the natural environment can result in their elimination. The project is therefore focused on improving the state of the environment in 4 ecosystems, which will help 4 bird species. The project will also improve over 28,000 people''s knowledge of birds and their habitats.
The target groups of this project includes residents, tourists, youth, children, teachers, tourist guides, owners of agritourism farms, animators, representatives of poviats, municipalities, employees of tourist offices and companies.
