The GWCT has produced this survey to capture your views on the importance of saving curlew in Wales.
The curlew population in Wales is believed to be down to an estimated 400 remaining pairs and could be extinct as a breeding population in Wales by 2033.
This is a bird which I remember from my childhood, particularly it’s haunting call down on the marsh but rarely do I hear it now.
As Welsh Government focusses its environmental policy and funds on landscape scale outcomes we believe that there is still a place to target conservation work towards single species such as the curlew.
We believe that people are passionate about the birds and wildlife on their farms and in their area. We think it is easier to focus on conservation for the purpose of helping a single species to thrive, which then has the knock-on effect of benefiting other species too.
Please spend just 5 minutes completing this short survey so that we can better understand and demonstrate to Welsh Government and NRW your preferences. Closing date is Friday 12th February.

Mae GWCT wedi cynhyrchu'r arolwg yma i gasglu eich barn ar bwysigrwydd achub y gylfinir yng Nghymru.
Credir mai dim ond 400 o barau o’r gylfinir sy'n weddill ym mhoblogaeth Cymru. Y tebygolrwydd yw y bydd yn diflannu o Gymru erbyn 2033 fel poblogaeth fridio.
Mae’n aderyn rwy'n ei gofio o'm mhlentyndod, yn enwedig wrth ei glywed yn canu ar ein cors, ond anaml y byddaf yn ei glywed yn ddiweddar.
