With worldwide debates and discussions brewing up on the impact of global warming, the heat is already being felt by numerous species of birds. A report released by the WWF estimates that over two-thirds of bird species in Australia and more than one-third of those in Europe could simply be wiped off the face of the Earth if the current rate of global warming continues. Already numbers of migratory birds have dropped drastically as has the breeding rate of others.
