Abstract
Wild birds are sensitive to environmental and climate change. Indeed, many species are declining sharply in number. According to the European Environmental Agency, between 1990 and 2023, common farmland birds decreased by 15%, while common forest birds decreased by 4.5%. Caused by increasing anthropogenic pressures, this major decline represents a serious threat to the conservation of the natural environment. Could Noahʼs ark avoid being capsized, thanks to secondary law, in particular the Birds and Habitats Directives?
