Scotland's Seabirds in Freefall | Glasgow News

Published 1 week, 1 day ago
Description

Scotland’s seabirds are in freefall—down 50% since the 1980s, with 19 out of 24 species crashing, some by as much as 93%. Breeding success has plummeted too, and while a few like puffins hold steady, the long-term outlook is bleak amid climate chaos, food shortages, and disease. NatureScot’s new conservation plan aims to protect habitats and food sources, using cutting-edge tech like GPS trackers to uncover what’s really driving the collapse—and they’re not giving up on turning things around.
