This bird came back from extinction - now scientists in an aircraft are teaching it to migrate
Briefly

It's an almost surreal experience, to be up there in the sky with these birds, experiencing them in the air, perfectly shaped for flying. It's a touching and extraordinary experience.
The first attempt to reintroduce a migratory species using this technique demonstrates how conservation efforts can creatively employ technology to revive endangered populations.
Early reintroduction attempts were unsuccessful as without the guidance of wild birds, the ibis flew away from suitable wintering grounds and died.
Inspired by the film Fly Away Home, Fritz's approach mirrors historical efforts, emphasizing the need for parental guidance in wildlife conservation.
