The State of Hampshire's Biodiversity

A new publication The State of Hampshire's Biodiversity was launched on 8th November at the Partnership's conference Biodiversity in Hampshire: Achieving a Sustainable Future. The report assesses the changes, losses and gains for wildlife in the county over the past 10 years. It also identifies the current influences affecting the health of our habitats and species.

Key successes include a significant reduction in the loss of biodiversity to development, major restoration of habitats such as heathland, and increases in populations of species such as otter, Dartford warbler and woodlark. There has also been a substantial increase in the county's biological database.
