SMALL BIRDS AT RISK- Nepal



Rise in temperature to an unpredicted level has caused sparrows and other small birds to die in droves in Itahari, eastern Nepal and across large parts of Tarai belt this year. There are 872 species of birds found in Nepal but the wildfires have destroyed natural habitats of birds in forestlands.  However, birds dwelling in low branches and bushes are more vulnerable than those that live in canopy.
