Challenge

The ongoing war in Ukraine has devastated both people and wildlife, with birds facing unprecedented threats. Explosions, fires, and debris destroy their nests, while migrating species suffer as their habitats are relentlessly bombarded. Ukraine is home to over 400 bird species, each now at risk, with many already near extinction. These birds are vital to our ecosystem, yet they are being lost at an alarming rate due to the war.

Solution

To address this crisis, UAnimals is supporting bird rehabilitation centers across Ukraine. These centers are crucial in treating injured birds, providing food, and preparing them for release back into the wild. With the help of these centers, we can offer shelter, medical care, and resources to birds in need, ensuring their survival. For example, the "Free Wings" center releases rehabilitated birds each month, helping protect biodiversity and stabilizing the environment.

Long-Term Impact

Birds play a critical role in ecosystems, such as pollination, pest control, and seed dispersal. Their survival is essential for maintaining a healthy environment. Ukraine holds 36% of Europe's biodiversity, and by supporting bird rehabilitation, we can protect these essential species. Together, we can help preserve Ukraine's natural heritage, curb the long-term ecological impact of war, and contribute to a cruelty-free, sustainable future.
