STATE OF YORKSHIRE'S NATURE

#soyn


A MILESTONE FOR YORKSHIRE’S NATURE

The first ever region-wide State of Yorkshire’s Nature report has analysed data
and information on Yorkshire’s wildlife.

It gives an accurate insight into how Yorkshire’s nature is faring – and,
crucially where action is now needed to create healthier, resilient and more
abundant landscapes.  

We are losing the species that make Yorkshire special – including curlews and
swifts – and action is needed now to restore a richer biodiversity and reverse
nature's decline before it is too late.  

Yorkshire is amazingly diverse, and a crucial haven for declining British
wildlife like puffins, wild orchids, and tree sparrows. But action is needed now
to maintain this diversity and our natural heritage.  

This report is vital for anyone with a role in caring for Yorkshire’s nature –
councils, landowners and policy makers – and gives us a sense of hope for
nature’s future survival.

Join our widespread movement for action!



This State of Yorkshire’s Nature work was made possible by the generous gift of
the Joyce Mary Mountain Will Trust.

OUR WILDLIFE IN DECLINE



 * Nearly 2,000 species have already been lost from Yorkshire in the last 200
   years - 7% of Yorkshire’s moths and nearly 1 in 20 plants - and a further
   3,000 are threatened by extinction.
   
   
 * Swifts, one of our best-known and best-loved birds that herald summertime,
   have declined by 50% in Yorkshire since 1995.
   
   
 * The range of mammals such as water voles and red squirrels has declined in
   Yorkshire – water voles by 41% and red squirrels by 69% in the last 50 years
   - threatened by invasive species like grey squirrels and mink.
   
   
 * Less than 20% of both protected sites and rivers in Yorkshire are in a
   healthy state. Of these, the Esk catchment has been the least impacted by
   human activity.
   
   
 * Over 300 species of birds, plants and moths in Yorkshire are ‘Yorkshire
   Species of Conservation Concern’: species which are nationally threatened,
   rare and declining in Yorkshire, and extensively found in Yorkshire.


REASONS TO BE HOPEFUL



 * Two thirds of all British species are found in Yorkshire - between 40,000 and
   45,000 different species
   
   
 * 32 out of 58 different terrestrial mammal species are found here, including
   several species of greatest conservation concern such as red squirrels, water
   voles, mountain hares and hazel dormice.
   
   
 * Two thirds of the regularly breeding and wintering birds in Britain can be
   found in Yorkshire – 194 different species. Yorkshire is home to 17% of the
   British swift population, 16% of the British breeding barn owl population,
   and 15% of the British breeding little owl and curlew populations.
   
   
 * Yorkshire supports 140 ‘Yorkshire Stronghold Species’: these are birds,
   mammals, moths and plants where the majority of their population is found in
   Yorkshire. 35% of breeding British tree sparrows are found in Yorkshire, and
   21% of breeding population of the UK’s most threatened resident bird species
   - willow tits – are also found here.
   
   
 * Plant species such as thistle broomrape, lady’s slipper orchid and Yorkshire
   sandwort are so rare that they are only found in Yorkshire.
