    Many bird species have gone extinct since 1500, with the rate of extinction increasing. The main causes of extinction are the invasion of isolated ecosystems by humans and predators, as well as indiscriminate hunting. Currently, several birds such as the California condor and Kakapo are endangered. Hunters threaten extinction for profit by hunting birds for their plumage or to keep as pets. In Peru, hunting also endangers many native bird species. However, conservation efforts work to protect birds and support increasing their populations to prevent extinction like the moa and dodo.

    ABSTRACT

    It is estimated that since the year 1500 more than 190 species of birds have
    been extinguished and the rate of extinction seems to be increasing. The
    phenomenon of the recent extinction of numerous species of birds can be
    due to two main factors:The invasion of ecosystems isolated by man and,
    above all, by predators and indiscriminate huntingCurrently in the world
    there are many birds in danger of extinction such as the famous California
    condor or the Kakapo. The hunters cause their extinction for profit. These
    poor birds are wanted either for their plumage or to end up in captivity.In our
    country hunting is not the exception.Many birds of our Peru are at great risk
    of extinction.But there are people around the world who are in charge of
    giving them protection and support so that they are not victims of the evil
    hunters. There are even conservation centers that help to raise many birds so
    that their population can increase and do not end up like the MOAS or the
    DODO, birds that disappear.
