• Guiding Migrating Birds Home

  Northern bald ibises have been extinct in the wild for 400 years, until a group of Austrian scientists attempted to re-introduce the birds to the wild. When attempting to migrate, the bald ibises had no idea where to go… until conservationist Johannes Fritz hopped in a microlight airplane and showed them the way.
