12.02.2010 - Interpretation of dali48

Many deer starve to death because of ice and snow - The long winter will cost the life of plenty of wildlife in the northeast of Germany - Deer are especially affected because they get no longer feed in the crusted snow and... - so the National Hunting Association of Mecklenburg-Vorpommern. Hunters reported of more and more dead animals in their districts - Also, many birds and fish did not survive the frost - Also game such as hares, rabbits, pheasants and partridges have to suffer of food shortage in the lowlands... - Seriously affected since several weeks are the water birds... (Rhine Post, 12.02.2010)

Interpretation of dali48

Many species undertake long distance annual migrations - and many more perform shorter irregular movements - Birds are social - they communicate using visual signals and through calls and songs - and participate in social behaviors - including cooperative breeding and hunting, flocking, and mobbing of predators - The vast majority of bird species are socially monogamous, usually for one breeding season at a time, sometimes for years, but rarely for life...
Many species are of economic importance - mostly as sources of food acquired through hunting or farming - Some species, particularly songbirds and parrots, are popular as pets...
Human activities can also be detrimental - and have threatened numerous bird species with extinction (hunting, avian lead poisoning, pesticides, roadkill, and predation by pet cats and dogs are common sources of death for birds)...
Domesticated birds raised for meat and eggs - called poultry, are the largest source of animal protein eaten by humans - in 2003, 76 million tons of poultry - and 61 million tons of eggs - were produced worldwide (see e.g. chick shredding etc. - d.48)...
Birds play prominent and diverse roles in folklore, religion, and popular culture - In religion, birds may serve as either messengers or priests and leaders for a deity... - In several civilizations of ancient Italy, particularly Etruscan and Roman religion, priests were involved in augury - or interpreting the words of birds while the "auspex" (from which the word "auspicious" is derived) watched their activities to foretell events - They may also serve as religious symbols - as when Jonah (Hebrew: dove) embodied the fright, passivity, mourning, and beauty traditionally associated with doves....
Many bird populations are declining worldwide - with 1,227 species listed as threatened by
Birdlife International and the IUCN in 2009.
The most commonly cited human threat to birds is habitat loss - Other threats include overhunting, accidental mortality due to structural collisions or long-line fishing by-catch, pollution (including oil spills and pesticide use), competition and predation from nonnative invasive species, and climate change...
