I rescued an exhausted and stranded young guillemot on ta beach on the Gower peninsula yesterday. Wrapped him up in my jumper and sat in car passenger seat carrying him to Gower Bird Hospital. They took him in and said he (?) was very thin. I hope he survives.

This seems like a small amount of money in the scheme of things. In contrast, this data and the conservation it supports, is priceless.

We need to lead the conservation of this planet. That means being a role model for the rest of the World. A budget cut of £12,000 - give me a break!

The next year of funding has been secured by public donations, but it shouldn't have ever got to that stage. Short term cuts have long term detrimental impacts on vitally important longitudinal studies.

It is very important to fund long term studies. This must be funded in future from central bodies.

This is so important. There are many other ways of saving money.

Such a small amount considering the gain and only a fraction of what it would cost if a consultancy were carrying it out.
