Submitted by ipsita on Sat, 1992-08-15 00:00
THE MADAGASCAR pochard, a duck species thought extinct 22 years ago, has been resurrected with the recent finding of a lone male in the island nation in the Indian Ocean. The duck was nabbed by a poacher in Lake Aloatra and recovered from him. It has since been kept at a special bird centre on the island nation and wildlife protection officials are frantically searching for a mate.
