Abstract
Over the past 30 years, research on shrikes has made significant strides, driven by technological advancements, long-term ecological studies, and an increasing focus on conservation. Shrikes (Laniidae), a fascinating group of passerines with predatory behaviors, are studied globally; however, research remains heavily concentrated on a limited number of species in Europe, North America, and Asia. Despite growing interest, critical gaps persist in understanding the ecology and behavior of lesser-known species, particularly in Africa and Asia. This symposium brings together global experts to share insights from long-term monitoring, examine the impact of climate change, and showcase cutting-edge methodologies such as geolocation and genomics. By addressing both emerging trends and challenges in shrike conservation, this symposium paves the way for new directions in avian research, offering a comprehensive vision for the future of shrike studies.
