By the way, did you know we work with Malagasy partners to protect fossa forests in the wild?

This is a very precious handful!
Socorro doves are one of five #birds listed as extinct in the wild. The entire surviving population of roughly 200 birds are all in the care of avian experts.
Eight chicks hatched at Chester Zoo this summer. It's a big boost for this incredibly rare species!
