United Kingdom Biodiversity Action Plan information


Water vole (Arvicola amphibius) - a 'Priority Species', listed in the UK BAP.

The United Kingdom Biodiversity Action Plan or (UK BAP) was the UK government's response to the Convention on Biological Diversity, opened for signature at the Rio Earth Summit in 1992. The UK was the first country to produce a national Biodiversity Action Plan. It was published in 1994 and created action plans for priority species and habitats in the UK that were most under threat so as to support their recovery.[1][2]
