The State of the Birds 2014 report found that red knots and other shorebirds are among the most threatened groups in the U.S. More than half of U.S. shorebird species are on the report’s Watch List—a list of 230 species that are currently endangered or at risk of becoming endangered without significant conservation.

El informe El estado de las aves 2014 afirma que los playeros rojizos y otras especies de aves playeras son de las que corren más peligro en los Estados Unidos. Más de la mitad de todas las especies de aves playeras de los Estados Unidos se encuentran en la “Lista de Alerta”—una lista de 230 especies que están en peligro de extinción o corren riesgo de estar en peligro si no se pone en práctica alguna medida de conservación.
