In 1958, Chinese authorities decide to fight 4 types of pests, one of them was that cute bird above "the  Eurasian tree sparrow" claiming that this sparrow was responsible for eating grain seeds and fruits.

The government offered rewards for killing them, According to some eyewitnesses, citizens would bang pots and pans so that sparrows would not have the chance to rest on tree branches and would fall dead from the sky. Sparrow nests were also destroyed, eggs were broken, and chicks were killed. In addition to these tactics, citizens also resorted to simply shooting the birds down from the sky. These mass attacks depleted the sparrow population, pushing it to near extinction.

The fact was sparrows were not only eating grain seeds and fruits, but they were natural enemies for other pests; Locust. eliminating birds gave a chance for Locust to be massively increased.

Next year, Locust populations boomed and they ate everything in their path. Grain production in most rural areas collapsed and a massive famine began.
