HARBINGERS OF CHANGE

The biologist and stork expert Holger Schulz sees storks as the harbingers of worrying changes for our planet. Like many other birds, storks are increasingly exposed to the dangers of the modern world. Pesticides have reduced the availability of their staple diet, while in southern Europe poorly maintained electricity masts kill thousands of storks every year. Meanwhile, the droughts caused by global warming threaten the storks’ wider environment.

A passionate scientist with a great love for the natural world, Holger Schulz has accompanied storks on their journey from Europe to Africa and here offers many fascinating insights into the life of these wonderful birds.
