Introduction

ACAP Monthly Missives are more personal than the articles that are regularly posted to ACAP Latest News.  The new series offers the opportunity to go behind and beyond factual events and current news, giving opinions on matters related to the conservation of all the members of the tubenose group of birds in the order Procellariiformes and their habitats. Access the missives by clicking on their titles below.

Posts will be largely written by John Cooper, ACAP's Emeritus Information Officer, with guests from time to time invited to make their own contributions.

The opinions expressed in ACAP Monthly Missives are not to be taken as those of the ACAP Secretariat or any of the Agreement’s Parties.
