Conservationists in Chile are reintroducing the rhea to its native Patagonia region, after the at-risk flightless bird was brought to near-extinction by illegal hunting.
Last month, fourteen rheas were released into Patagonia s national park by the Tompkins Conservation, bounding from a fenced enclosure into a grassy plain. We started with a population of at least 20 birds and today, census results show close to 70, said Cristian Saucedo, director of the rewilding programme at the conservation group, referring to the scheme that started in 2014. The goal is to get to 100 adults in the wild. With that number, we estimate the population will be able to sustain itself over time, he told Reuters in a virtual interview.
