About These Birds
Storm's Stork
75–91 cm. Black and white with white neck; bare red facial skin; red and yellow bill. Critically Endangered; restricted to lowland forest wetlands of Borneo, Sumatra, and Peninsular Malaysia. Highly sensitive to forest loss. Very few confirmed nesting records; one of Asia's rarest storks.
Mandschurenstorch
Der Mandschurenstorch ist eine der am stärksten gefährdeten Storchenarten; in freier Wildbahn leben noch weniger als 3.000 Individuen. Einst war er in ganz Ostasien weit verbreitet, ging jedoch durch die Trockenlegung von Feuchtgebieten und den Einsatz von Pestiziden dramatisch zurück. Wiederansiedlungsprogramme in Japan und Korea konnten bemerkenswerte Erfolge erzielen.
