What Others are saying about the Ivory Bill

Here's an excerpt from Ivorybill.org:

"'Finding the ivory-bill in Arkansas validates decades of great conservation work and represents incredible hope for the future,” said Scott Simon, director of The Nature Conservancy's Arkansas chapter. “For over 20 years, many agencies, conservation organizations, hunters, and landowners have worked to conserve and restore the bottomland hardwood and swamp ecosystem. Now we know we must work even harder to conserve this critical habitat—not just for the ivory-billed woodpecker, but for the black bears and many other rare species of these unique woods.'"
