This initiative aimed to gather crucial data on local bird populations and their preferred habitats, furthering birding awareness and enhancing local capacity in Akwa-Ibom State. The bird-watching activity was conducted for 2 hours and 6 minutes to capture variations in bird activity. During this activity, a total of 26 bird species were identified, representing a mix of resident birds with the Grey headed kingfisher being the rarest bird found in the area.

We hope that something will be done about this incident

BPC Nigeria frowns seriously and condemns this wicked attack on an innocent elephant by a government agent, BPC insist that government must immediately institute widespread conservation education for all the security agencies in Nigeria, wildlife conservation education and BPC is willing to lead such training in conjunction with other well meaning conservation organizations, this should never continue and the perpetrators must be brought to book by immediate effect with immediate effect to serve as a deterrent for others to create the much needed awareness for conservation, elephants are protected by laws both by Nigerian laws and the international conservation conventions that Nigeria is a signatory nation, it's a terrible thing and should never be encouraged.
