Turkey has a very unique and important location for migratory birds in terms of geography. The country's 486 bird species include 416 migratory birds, and most of them are listed on an IUCN Red List. Turkey is party to three international conventions (BERN, RAMSAR, and PARIS) related to migratory birds, but it is not party to the BONN Convention or the AEWA, ACAP, and ASEAN agreements aimed at the conservation of migratory species. We tried to determine which species are protected under the conventions and agreements to which Turkey is a party or not. We used a 5-point scoring chart to rate how well Turkish legislation on migratory birds compared with the abovementioned international conventions and agreements. Turkish judiciary on this issue is also analyzed by examining whether the cases in question were in favor of or against the protected bird species.
就地理位置而言,土耳其对于候鸟而言有着非常独特且重要的意义。该国的 486 种鸟类包括 416 种候鸟,其中大多数都被列入 IUCN 红色名录。土耳其是三个与候鸟有关的国际公约(伯尔尼公约、拉姆萨尔公约和巴黎公约)的缔约国,但不是波恩公约、生物多样性公约关于迁飞物种保护的附属协定、亚太地区候鸟保护协定和东盟协定的缔约国。我们试图确定土耳其作为缔约国的公约和协定中保护了哪些物种,以及土耳其的候鸟立法与上述国际公约和协定相比情况如何。我们使用了五分制评分表来进行评估。我们还通过检查相关案件是否有利于或不利于受保护的鸟类物种,来分析土耳其司法机构在这一问题上的立场。
