Five Secretarybird Chicks Hatch at Chester Zoo | Liverpool News

Description

Chester Zoo just pulled off a conservation coup: five baby secretarybirds—rare, snake-stomping African hunters—hatched there for the first time in its 95-year history. Keepers hand-reared the first chicks and developed breakthrough techniques that could revolutionize breeding efforts across Europe. With only three other chicks born elsewhere last year and secretarybirds vanishing from parts of their native grasslands, this win is huge. Chester plans to share their methods to help these endangered birds survive and thrive.
