Ivory-Billed Woodpecker Appears to Have Vanished
The ivory billed woodpecker, once common in eastern forests, appears to have vanished. Sightings have not been confirmed since 1967 in Texas, 1950 in Florida, or more recently near Santee Swamp in South Carolina. Conservation battles and logging decimated hardwood stands, ending the birds' food supply and likely ending the species.
