Sutle owls threatened by means of professional workforce – and people are principally accountable

The icy owl, the royal avian symbol of Quebec and the prestigious partner of Harry Potter, are in danger of being endangered, if action is not taken to reverse the dangers for its existence, an independent advisory panel has been concluded.

This week, the committee classified the species as a threat in the country on the position of endangered wildlife in Canada (Kosvik).

While the expert group has created this designation, the governments of Canada and Cubek have not yet officially recognized the situation.

Sant-Ann-D-Belleview, Ecomuseum Zoo at Q in Q, calls the alarm this week, calls the provincial government to work fast.

A statement sent to the CBC reads in the zoo, “The alarm bell should be ringing in Quebec.”

Zoo Executive Director David Rodrigue pointed to several factors behind the fall of icy owl-many of them of human causes.

“We all should take it as a wake-up call and actually start to see what it really means to change and change the existing trends in global warming,” he said.

Rodrigue said that icy owls rely too much on laming as a food source – a small rodent species also in the fall, Rodrigue said.

Lamings live in winter by digging tunnels through ice to feed on grass and moss. But with the incidence of excess rainfall in winter, the ice cover in the Arctic becomes more icy and solid, making it difficult to dig for laming.

This malnutrition, population crashes and eventually, has an impact on the snowy owl population, whose number is naturally not recovering due to the perseverance of these environmental pressures, Rodrigue said.

And the owl does not face the problems of the answer just.

Rodrigue said that many of them migrate south in winter – reach areas such as Montreal and South Sides – where they often die after eating rodents who have been poisoned by rodents used in agriculture.

Rodrigue said, “What is happening now, we are pulling out, so to speak, one by one species. And there is a point where the ecosystems no longer work without a certain number of species,” Rodrigue said, compared the ecosystem to a game of Jenga.

“You can pull out for a long time (pieces) and stand (tower). But at one point, you take out one, everything collapses. It’s how we are connected.”

Population falls over 40%

Cosewic is an independent advisory body for Canada’s Ministry of Environment and Climate Change (ECCC). This includes government organizations, non-government groups, academics and private sector wildlife biology experts.

Lewis Blight, co-chairman of Koswik’s bird expert sub-committee, said the designation was based on a decline in population for three generations-which matches for almost 24 years.

“During that period, the snowy owl has seen a decline in more than 40 percent. This means that it meets the criteria for danger,” he said.

“Canadian and non-canadian people should be concerned about the status of icy owls.”

The committee has recommended that the federal government adds birds to the list of Canadian threat species. Blight identified several other threats contributing to the decline, including the loss of sea ice, electrocution, and avian influenza.

To address the crisis, the blight suggests rodent control, environmentally friendly agricultural practices, avian flu mitigation efforts and more responsible approaches for action on climate change.

In a statement, the ECC said that the committee expects to submit its evaluation in the fall of 2025.

“After this step, the minister will have to post a response statement for the species in the risk of risk within 90 days. It begins a counseling process,” read the statement.

Killed by cars, caught in electric lines

Gai Fitzgerld, a physician of the Birds of Pre Clinic of Universal de Montreal, who participated in the committee’s discussions, stated that icy owls are not used for human hazards.

He said, “We see a lot of icy owls hitting cars, they can kill power lines,” he said, they hunt near roads and airports because it is easy to catch small rodents where there is no vegetation.

An icy owl was brought to its clinic after being rescued by a bird seer. It was entangled in a prickly wire fence, and a feather was seriously injured.

“Its entire wing was dissected. It is a bird that will eliminate its days in a refuge or a zoological institution,” said Fitzgerald.

He said that the clinic aims to leave the hunting birds back into the wild. In this case, this was not possible.

He explained that icy owls often do not see fences when flying less to hunt and they are among the species that have been affected by gun tablets in the last three decades, emphasizing the need for more and more public education.

He said, “We have to take care of them, but we have to consider them as an ecological service,” he said, icy owls can help regulate other animal population.

“More and more, we understand that delicate balance is dependent on biodiversity.”

Quebec is not collected enough data

According to Rodrigue, adequate data is not being collected on icy owls in Quebec and the possibility of national decline in the species reflects a uniform trend within the province.

“This is quite clear, speaking scientifically, that it is already happening here,” he said. Nevertheless, he said that icy owls have not been labeled as a species which is susceptible to danger or danger in the province.

Following the classification of the committee, the Ministry of Environment of Quebec told the CBC that it would evaluate the status of the species based on the available data.

Rodriggy sees this designation as a perfect opportunity for the provincial government to proceed and move faster.

“The big rock we live on … we are basically borrowing it from our children and we are going to give it back to some point,” he said.

“We can make sure that we give it back in the event of working.”
