Species Loss Map (IMAGE)
Caption
Where the most species are losing habitat. This map shows the number of bird species affected by habitat loss in any region. Grey zones indicate parts of Australia where habitat loss has not occurred. Blue zones have up to 90 species affected by habitat loss, yellow is up to 120 species affected, while the highest category, red, is up to 187 species affected. The number alongside each region's name is the Loss Index value for that part of Australia. For example, in south-east mainland Australia, a Loss Index of 61 means that 61% of bird species have each lost at least 61% of their natural habitat.
