Due to the high temperatures hundreds of birds fall dead in San Luis Potosí

Due to the high temperatures that have been registered in our country in the last two months hundreds of birds have fallen dead in San Luis Potosí.

The most affected area is Xilitla, because there are few places where these animals can quench their thirst.

According to a communiqué issued by the ecology directorate, among the most affected species are “tunera” pigeons, Huastec popes, and other birds.

The head of the Municipal Ecology Department, Marcelino Covarrubias Hernández, pointed out that there have been episodes in which the thermometer exceeds 35 degrees, which puts the fauna of the demarcation at risk, especially the diversity of birds that inhabit the municipality, which he warned, is in danger.

“They located pigeons, pigeons, birds and unfortunately, even a bird called tucaneta, which is familiar to the toucans, which have died due to the high temperatures.”
