Possible Last Survivors of a Once-Thought-Extinct Woodpecker Found, Evidence Remains Inconclusive

Scientists have compiled evidence that suggests the ivory-billed woodpecker may still exist in a Louisiana swamp forest.
The evidence includes sighting reports, audio recordings, trail camera images, and drone footage collected over the last decade.
The findings are cautiously presented with words like "possible" and "putative," and some experts are unconvinced by the evidence.
Removing the woodpecker from the endangered species list could be detrimental if any individuals remain, but some argue limited funds should go to species with more certain peril.
The grainy and unclear video evidence leaves much uncertainty about whether the ivory-billed woodpecker continues to live on or has vanished from this world.
