Bird hunting in Cambodia & mainland Southeast Asia<\/h1>\n\n\n\n

Across mainland Southeast Asia, hunting is silently decimating populations of birds once plentiful. Mist nets especially are responsible for the death of millions of migratory birds, who are declining across the region. Our investigation in Cambodia found bird hunting and trade widespread throughout the country, driven by low income and weak law enforcement.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

This story was published in 2025 in Dialogue Earth Bird hunting in Cambodia driven by poverty and lax enforcement<\/a> (English) and \u4e3a\u4f55\u67ec\u57d4\u5be8\u201c\u6253\u9e1f\u201d\u5c61\u7981\u4e0d\u6b62?<\/a> (Chinese), CamboJA News<\/a> (Khmer) and summarized in Le Petit Journal<\/a> (French).<\/p>\n\n\n\n

A short video focusing on the role mist nets play in this regional crisis was published with Mongabay and received more than 10k views across YouTube<\/a>, Tiktok<\/a> and Instagram<\/a>. Several photos were awarded in Bird Photographer of the Year 2024<\/a> & 2026<\/a>, as well as Delta Birding Festival<\/a> photography competitions. The winning photographs were profiled in local outlets Kiripost<\/a> and Cambodianess<\/a>.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Bird hunting in Cambodia, 2021-2025<\/figcaption><\/figure><\/div>\n\n\n

Unlike the snaring crisis and trade in iconic species, bird hunting for the bushmeat trade has failed to attract the attention of both the media and conservationists, in part because the issue spreads well beyond protected areas. Researchers warn that the region ‘may eventually succumb to the spectre of \u00ab\u00a0empty wetlands and farmlands,\u00a0\u00bb on top of the \u00ab\u00a0empty forest\u00a0\u00bb syndrome already being documented’.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Do get in touch<\/a> if you are interested by this story, either as a media or a nonprofit. I keep covering this issue in Southeast Asia and I’m open to collaborations. Another reason for bird trapping is for the Buddhist practice of life release<\/a>.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
