"Following a hunting ban, European Turtle Dove has increased by 25% in Western
Europe between 2021 and 2023, according to a new report.

News of the recovery, which equates to an additional 400,000 breeding pairs
across the region, comes as France, Spain and Portugal confirm that the hunting
ban will be extended for a fourth year in a row.

The report, prepared for the European Commission, has been produced by the
international team of scientists advising governments on how to manage
populations of turtle doves sustainably. The temporary hunting ban, in place
across France, Spain and Portugal since 2021, resulted from evidence-based
advice from the same team."
