At the time, the parties to the Convention were more interested in \"useful\" birds as opposed to protecting the species for their own sake. However, it was a start and it is considered a foundational treaty in the development of environmental and international environmental law. It therefore holds an important place in the history of environmental treaties and laws at an international level.","Page language":"en","Page license":"CC-BY-SA-3.0","Page title":"International Convention for the Protection of Birds Useful to Agriculture","Page views":"2621","Page year":"Friday, 01-Jan-16 00:00:00 UTC","Modification date":"Thursday, 27-Nov-25 23:09:24 UTC"}
