Sixty-four percent of North America's bird population is at risk of extinction from climate change.
That's according to a report released this month by the Audubon Society called, Survival by Degrees: 389 Bird Species on the Brink.
A second report, published in September by Science Magazine, found that since 1970, bird populations in the United States and Canada have declined by 29%, or almost 30 billion birds.
In addition to climate change and habitat destruction, another contributing factor is the large number of feral and outdoor cats in the U.S.
