Özet

Observations show that cities are habitats for many species. Birds, which are one of the most important members of these species are starting to turn into a more domestic form compared to many of their congeners thanks to the life in the cities, although they are in the status of wild animals. The human factor that they share the same environment with has a great effect on this. Many genres with city life; It is faced with consequences such as getting used to people, finding readymade food, living in noise and air pollution, unbalanced nutrition, risk of disease and spreading to wider areas, abnormal increase in populations and negative effects on biodiversity. The positive and negative aspects of the results of this situation need to be investigated. Awareness raising of people on bird feeding in wildlife and a feeding program should be implemented through certain institutions. Man-made feeding should be abolished, and birds should be allowed to live in their natural habitats, excluding extreme climatic conditions or others naturel disasters.
