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.
Oriental Stork
The oriental stork is one of the most endangered stork species, with fewer than 3,000 individuals remaining in the wild. It was once widespread across East Asia but declined dramatically due to wetland drainage and pesticide use. Reintroduction programs in Japan and Korea have achieved notable success.
