SBBT has begun to publish videos on conservation challenges for swallowtails on its website project pages. Darren Howat’s film, “Conservation of the British Swallowtail”, summarises the Trust’s June 2018 workshop when sea-level rise and salinisation of the Norfolk Broads were discussed. A film “Kinabalu Swallowtail” by Stephen Sutton and his team in Sabah, emphasises vulnerability of Troides andromache in the Kinabalu National Park.
Swallowtails and birdwings are beautiful and graceful butterflies – who wouldn’t love to see them dancing in the sunlight or sipping nectar from wildflowers? But many species are under threat from agriculture, forestry and climate change. We have ideas, enthusiasm and a vision for the future. Will you help us to achieve our goals?
Financial contributions are welcome and will be treasured. We also need your ideas, new information, suggestions and encouragement!
We do four things to help swallowtails and birdwings: we raise financial resources; convene networks and partnerships; catalyse action, and provide scientific and technical support.
