World Sparrow Day: Significance

The planet is home to countless sparrows, which are small, common birds. They are crucial to the environment because they keep insects and pests under control and provide food for other species. However, a number of problems, including habitat loss, pollution, and the use of pesticides, have contributed to a sharp decline in the world’s sparrow population in recent years.
