@benjamin--murphy.bsky.socialIn the early 1900s the #trumpeterswan was nearly #extinct. In the 1980s #bird sanctuaries along with the University of #Michigan used eggs from Alaska to reintroduce these swans back to Michigan.
In 2023 these swans were removed from the #endangered species list and are still federally protected.
