Topic: Species Extinction (57 minutes)
Learn the compelling, little-known story of the rapid extinction of the once abundant passenger pigeon, and explore its lessons for today with the alarming decline of many species worldwide. These sleek and beautiful birds darkened entire skies, like nothing in existence today. Yet in a matter of decades, human activity drove the species to extinction. By 1912, after a nationwide search, not a single bird could be found living in the wild. 2014 award winner at the American Conservation and Boston Environmental Film Festivals.
