The Ivory-billed woodpecker once ranged through the forest from Texas to North Carolina.  But you won't find any today.  The las one was seen in 1944.  How could that happen?  This is the story.  It is the story of the efforts to save the bird as well and what led to it's extinction.  It's the sad tale of a public that didn't care and corporations who put profits above saving the last of the Ivory-billed woodpecker.
