The Bird Collision Problem: A Growing Concern
As Bangalore's skyline continues to evolve, the increasing number of high-rise buildings presents a significant threat to the local bird population. Collisions with glass windows, balconies, and other reflective surfaces are one of the leading causes of bird fatalities in urban areas. Many species, particularly migratory birds, fly into these reflective surfaces, mistaking them for open space or safe landing areas. This results in thousands of bird deaths annually, most of which go unnoticed.
Furthermore, the city’s bustling roads, high-rise buildings, and industrial areas contribute to habitat loss and fragmentation, forcing birds to adapt to urban environments. While some species have successfully adjusted to city life, others are struggling with the dangers posed by urban infrastructure.
