A massive forest fire on the island of Madeira

26th August 2010
A massive forest fire on the island of Madeira has recently killed several breeding adults and 65% of this year’s (2010) chicks of Endangered Zino’s Petrel. BirdLife International and SPEA (Birdlife in Portugal) urgently need funds to carry out emergency conservation work needed before the winter sets in.
