Ivory Billed Woodpecker
First of all how uniquely gorgeous is this guy! I mean that vibrant red against his black body is something to see — def wouldn’t be hard to spot this guy in the sport, “bird spotting.” Well except for the fact that these guys can only be found throughout the Southeastern portion of the U.S.A, mainly in the forests.This bird was thought to be extinct back in the 40’s. However, a team of researchers managed to located the bird back in 2009.

For over 50 years this rather elusive marsupial, which was believed to have become extinct from mainland Australia, was actually (recently) rediscovered in New South Wales, according to The Sydney Morning Herald. They are widespread in Tasmania, but were eradicated from larger Australia by the introduction of red foxes, and the last confirmed mainland spotting of the animal happened around Sydney in 1963. However in 2016, someone had discovered one in 1989 and had it stuffed, giving hope that they weren’t completely eliminated from the mainland.
