The turtle dove's population in western Europe has seen a 25% rise due to a temporary shooting ban, suggesting successful conservation efforts.
Despite a 15% overall decline in Britain's turtle dove population, promising increases in certain sites have been observed due to focused conservation programs.
Operation Turtle Dove's successful initiative involves over 440 farms providing conditions essential for breeding, with specialized seed and suitable habitats being prioritized.
