Staggering collapse in migratory fish populations threatens health of millions and critical freshwater ecosystems

Staggering collapse in migratory fish populations threatens health of millions and critical freshwater ecosystems | Biodiversité | Scoop.it

Populations of migratory freshwater fish species continue to decline across the globe, risking the food security and livelihoods of millions of people, the survival of countless other species, and the health and resilience of rivers, lakes and wetlands.

"Le Nouveau rapport sur l'indice de la planète vivante (LPI) sur les poissons migrateurs d'eau douce révèle un effondrement stupéfiant de 81 % de la population en moyenne de la population surveillée entre 1970 et 2020, y compris des baisses catastrophiques de 91 % en Amérique latine et dans les Antilles et de 75 % en Europe." via World Fish Migration Foundation
