Conservation action saved 16 bird species

"Conservation action saved 16 bird species from extinction between 1994
and 2004. Although they represent just 1.3% of the world’s
threatened birds, these successes demonstrate that, given political
will and resources, we have the knowledge and tools to turn back the
tide of extinction."
