Black Rat Removal Boosts Zannone Shearwater Pairs from 27 to 80
A conservation project on Zannone, a Mediterranean island off Italy, successfully removed invasive black rats, leading to a significant increase in the local shearwater seabird pairs from 27 to 80. Zannone was part of Italy's expanding rat eradication program aimed at protecting native wildlife and restoring ecological balance on larger islands.
