Editing Common grasshopper warbler (section)

==Status==
The common grasshopper warbler is assessed by the [[IUCN]] in their [[Red List of Threatened Species]] as being of [[Least Concern]]. This is because it has a large total population and an extensive range. The population in Europe is estimated to be between 840,000 and 2.2 million breeding pairs with a total of 2.5 to 6.6 million individuals. As Europe amounts to about two thirds of its total range, the world population is estimated to be in the region of 3.4 to 13.2 million individuals. The total number of birds may be on the decline because of habitat loss, but not to an extent that would warrant listing the bird under a higher risk category.<ref name="iucn status 12 November 2021" /> In a study examining the possible [[effects of global warming]] on the range of various species of bird, it was estimated that the breeding range of the common grasshopper warbler would be displaced several hundred miles northwards and would cover the British Isles and the whole of Scandinavia but that it would cease to breed in much of its present range in mainland Europe.<ref>{{cite journal |author1=Huntley, Brian |author2=Collingham, Yvonne C. |author3=Willis, Stephen G. |author4=Green, Rhys E. |year=2008 |title=Potential Impacts of Climatic Change on European Breeding Birds |journal=PLOS ONE |doi=10.1371/journal.pone.0001439 |volume=3 |issue=1 |pages=e1439|pmid=18197250 |pmc=2186378 |bibcode=2008PLoSO...3.1439H |doi-access=free }}</ref>
