Giant ibis  (Thaumatibis gigantea)

Range

With a remaining population of fewer than 250 birds, the giant ibis is found only in northern Cambodia and the extreme southern tip of Laos. It was previously found in southern Vietnam and southeast and peninsular Thailand, but is now extinct in these countries (2).

Habitat

Primarily inhabits the northern Cambodian open dipterocarp forest. This bird feeds in wetlands (more abundant during the rainy season) but also in the grasslands during the dry season (3).
