The ACAP Secretariat extends season’s greetings and its best wishes for an albatross- and petrel-friendly 2020 to all the readers of ACAP Latest News and to the 4790 followers of the Agreement's Facebook page.
Next year’s inaugural World Albatross Day (WAD2020) on 19 June with its theme “Eradicating Island Pests” will mark the attempts to eradicate House Mice on Gough and Midway Islands. ACAP wishes all the members of the Gough Island Restoration Programme and the Midway Seabird Protection Project the very best of luck.
