Superb fairy-wrens are facing "imminent danger," and a well-studied population in Canberra could go extinct in the next 30 years if we don't urgently curb greenhouse gas emissions, according to an international team of scientists including researchers from The Australian National University (ANU), James Cook University (JCU) and Hainan University. Their comprehensive, decades-long study published in Nature Communications has tracked a population of fairy-wrens at the Australian National Botanic Gardens in Canberra since 1988.
