It now needs human help to migrate for winter How do you teach a bird how, and where, to fly? The distinctive Northern Bald Ibis, hunted essentially to extinction by the 17th century, was revived by breeding and rewilding efforts over the last two decades.

So a team of scientists and conservationists stepped in as foster parents and flight instructors. “We have to teach them the migration route,” said biologist Johannes Fritz. This photo provide by Waldrappteam Conservation & Research shows the migration from Northern Bald Ibis, or the Waldrapp from Seekirche...

A team of biologists, vets and fishermen temporarily captured rare freshwater dolphins in the Amazon this week to study their health in hopes of avoiding a repeat of the deaths of hundreds of the mammals last year due to a severe drought. The dolphins, that are in danger of extinction, were brought ashore for blood tests and other examinations and returned to Lake Tefé in the Amazon basin as soon as the researchers had finished their work. Fishermen were careful not to injure an adult female dolphin during capture and kept her close to her young offspring to avoid stressing the animals. Field researchers from the Mamiraua Institute of Sustainable Development capture a rare Amazon river dolphin, also known as the pink river dolphin, during an expedition in Tefe, Amazonas state, Br...
