Hoopoes are widely found in northern, central, and southern Africa, Madagascar, Europe, and Asia.


People like hoopoes because they eat many insects that are agriculture and forestry pests. Thus, hoopoes are widely protected by a variety of national laws. However, many hoopoes are still hunted in southern Europe and parts of Asia.
