The Northern Bald Ibis is a critically endangered bird species found in rocky, arid habitats in North Africa and the Middle East. It is characterized by its bald head and long, downward-curved bill. The plumage is dark brown, and the feathers have a metallic sheen in the sunlight. These birds are social and live in groups of up to 50 individuals. The Northern Bald Ibis was once widespread but is now considered one of the rarest birds in the world due to habitat loss, hunting, and poisoning. Conservation efforts are underway to protect and restore their populations, including captive breeding programs and habitat restoration projects.
