NAIROBI, Oct. 12 (Xinhua) -- The protection of insects is crucial for the survival of migratory birds facing numerous threats, including pollution, climate change, and habitat loss, a senior United Nations official said Saturday during the World Migratory Bird Day.
Musonda Mumba, secretary general of the Convention on Wetlands, said that insects are a critical food source for migratory birds, helping them endure their long journeys in search of nesting sites.
