The conservation economics of protecting bird species which migrate across national boundaries is examined. A case for adopting a global view of the implications of national conservation efforts and for negotiating efficient international conservation agreements is emphasised. The roles of cost constraints, strategic policy substitutabilities/complementarities, policy reactivity and alternative conservation objectives are analysed.
