Manx charity responds to State of Nature report
The Isle of Man has an international responsibility when it comes to protecting certain species, or face losing them forever.
The warning comes from the outgoing Managing Director of Manx BirdLife Neil Morris in response to the State of Nature report 2023.
It has been put together by more than 60 organisations, including wildlife conservation groups, government agencies and academics, looking back at around 50 years of research.
It's found that natural spaces and the wildlife that depends on them are in decline, which Mr Morris says is hugely worrying:

Government aiming to meet challenges facing creative industries
9.9% minimum wage rise 'a national crisis' says Chamber of Commerce
