鑒於我悲慘的英文能力我實在翻譯不出來,但總之我看得懂只是無法描述.....

一言以蔽之,2/1世界上最老的野生鳥類又生寶寶了,寶寶名叫Kukini,that's all

Beloved Laysan albatross Wisdom, the world's oldest banded wild bird, has added yet another branch to her sprawling family tree.

In a blog post, the United States Fish & Wildlife Service reveals that the bird, who is at least 65 years old, and her mate welcomed a healthy hatchling into the world on February 1.

Wildlife researchers named the chick Kukini, which is Hawaiian for "messenger."

Throughout the colony, Wisdom's isn't the albatross family with a new addition -- officials have identified nearly 500,000 active nests at the Midway Atoll National Wildlife Refuge, a USFWS facility in the northern Pacific Ocean that houses the world's largest albatross colony.

Wisdom was first banded by renowned ornithologist Chandler Robbins in 1956. She has "nested consecutively" at the refuge since then, according to USFWS data.

Based on decades of observations, researchers believe that she has raised as many as 40 chicks and logged millions of miles of ocean flight time throughout her life.

"Wisdom is an iconic symbol of inspiration and hope," Refuge Manager Robert Peyton remarked in a statement.

"She is breaking longevity records of previously banded birds by at least a decade. With over a million albatross on Midway Atoll alone, this shows just how much is left to learn about the natural world around us."

看了下原网页的图
貌似这货是皇家信天翁?WWWWWWWWWWWWWWWW
毕竟这些货寿命本来就超长有木有WWWWWWWWWWW

说到野鸟的寿命,其实是个超难测超说不好的参数有木有!
尤其是在国内,我会说某种被研究了几十年的鸟类到了现在专家们还对它的野外寿命完全不清楚吗?(哎WWWWWW

这个新闻很有意思,持续追踪的话,或许可以确定鸟类是否真的终身都具有繁殖能力呢~
