Want to know more about our contribution to the KBA programme? Here is a recent post by our IUCN colleagues: How ‘key’ should a ‘Key Biodiversity Area’ be?
On 10th December 2012, Moreno Di Marco will present some of the GMA current projects during a seminar at ZSL. Mammal species decline: past trend, current challenge, and possible conservation strategies One quarter of all mammal species are today threatened with extinction, with both recent trends and future predictions pointing toward an imminent increase of […]
