In January, a male Guam rail chick hatched at the Smithsonian Conservation Biology Institute (SCBI) in Front Royal, Virginia. He is part of a breeding program to save his species and will be repatriated to Guam.
The Guam rail went extinct in the wild largely due to the invasive brown tree snake introduced to the island by humans, but breeding programs have restored wild Guam rail populations to more than 200 individuals.

In 1985, we were the first organization outside of Guam to receive these birds for breeding. Last September, our team released two Guam rails born at SCBI on the island of Rota.
The release of those chicks, along with 47 others born at different facilities, marked the first time in 32 years that Guam rails living in the wild outnumbered those in human care.
