- W2606821389 abstract "Aviculture a Winner at CITES Meeting Most aviculturists expected the worst from the 8th Conference of the Parties to CITES, the Convention on International Trade in Endangered Species, which was held in Kyoto, Japan in early March. After the last meeting in Switzerland in 1989, animal rights groups vowed to push for a total ban on trade in all wild-caught birds. Fortunately for AFA members, nearly all of the resolutions in Kyoto that would have seriously curtailed bird-keeping were defeated. This outcome did not reflect widespread support for captive breeding of birds, but rather came from a general attitude favoring sustainable utilization instead of strict preservation of wildlife. Serious concerns still remain about the high mortality associated with transport of wild-caught birds and will no doubt lead to renewed calls for trade restrictions and bans at the next CITES meeting to be held in the United States in 1994. AFA, one of over 150 non-government organizations (NGOs) in Kyoto, was represented by Val Clear and myself. There is an unwritten but definite caste system in effect at CITES meetings. Delegates from the richest nations and members of the CITES Secretariat (the bureaucracy that enforces the treaty) are at the top of the pyramid, representatives from less-developed countries and from large international NGOs such as World Wildlife Fund (WWF) come next, and relatively small groups perceived as representing special interests, such as AFA, are at the bottom. Seniority also plays a role: the more previous CITES meetings you have attended, the more you are listened to. Despite this arrangement, it is possible for representatives of a small NGO to have some influence by talking one-on-one with individual delegates and by becoming allied with better-known groups." @default.
