Target: Mr. Rodrigo Chaves Robles, President of Costa Rica
Goal: Advocate for the protection of the saffron-crowned tanager, which is threatened by habitat loss and trapping for the pet trade.
The saffron-crowned tanager is a beautiful and unique bird found in Central and South America. However, its population is declining rapidly due to habitat loss and trapping for the pet trade. The species is currently listed as vulnerable on the International Union for Conservation of Nature (IUCN) Red List, and urgent action is needed to prevent it from becoming endangered or extinct.
The saffron-crowned tanager plays an important ecological role in its natural habitat, and its decline could have significant consequences for the ecosystems in which it lives. The loss of this species would be a tragedy for biodiversity conservation efforts in the region.
We must take action to protect the saffron-crowned tanager from habitat loss and trapping for the pet trade. This can be achieved through the establishment of protected areas and the enforcement of existing laws and regulations. In addition, public awareness campaigns and education programs can help to promote conservation efforts and discourage the illegal pet trade.
The protection of the saffron-crowned tanager is a crucial step in preserving the biodiversity of Central and South America. Its survival is essential for maintaining healthy ecosystems and promoting sustainable development in the region. Sign below and demand former President Luis Guillermo Solís advocate for its protection and support conservation efforts in the region.
