Animales amenazados

Cacapos are flightless birds that climb instead of flying. They face threats from predators like rats and stoats, which has led to a significant decline in their population. To protect them, scientists have relocated cacapos to predator-free islands and are actively involved in their conservation. These efforts aim to increase their numbers and remove them from the threatened species list.
