Summary:
Red knots make an amazing journey
from their breeding grounds in the Canadian Arctic to their winter habitat in
South America and back each year. Their numbers have fallen precipitously in
recent decades, and with such a broad range, determining what's behind the
shorebird's decline is a huge challenge. A new study has determined that while
there is plenty of breeding habitat to support today's population, climate
change could pose a threat in the future.
