Abbott's boobies face extinction on Christmas Island
One of the world's rarest birds the Abbott's booby is confined to Christmas Island in the Indian Ocean. A near pure phosphate deposit on the 52 square mile island is mined by firms from New Zealand and Australia exporting millions of tons yearly. Mining will destroy up to 70 percent of vegetation and strip soil, threatening nesting sites for about 4000 boobies. Conservationists urge the company to leave tree clumps but the birds show little sign of relocation.
