      Canada is the only country that has actually tracked their numbers in detail and has a recorded 75% loss in the last 25 years.

      Everywhere else is estimating a 30% loss, but they can’t provide studies backing up that limited loss.

      Hard to get international numbers, but in Canada they’re listed as “at risk” with a 75% drop in numbers in the last 25 years.
