A group of wildlife scientists believe the ivory-billed woodpecker is not extinct. They say they have made seven firm sightings of the bird in central
Arkansas. The landmark find caps a search that began more than 60 years ago, after biologists said North America’s largest woodpecker had become
extinct in the United States.
