One of the more unique species found at World Bird Sanctuary is the Northern Bald Ibis, also known as the Waldrapp Ibis. These are one of the most endangered species of birds that we care for, with only 200-249 individuals left in the wild. Our two females, Theodora and Matilda, are part of the Species Survival Plan, and we are working closely with the SSP coordinator to get them the perfect male. Looking at the pedigrees and genetics of the individuals under professional care is very important
