Conservation advocates are highlighting the Gorgeted Puffleg, a critically endangered hummingbird found only in Colombia, where fewer than 60 individuals are believed to survive. Climate change, illegal coca cultivation and cattle ranching are cited as the main threats pushing the iridescent bird toward extinction. Campaigners are calling for habitat protection and consumer action to save the species.
Why now: Conservationists are drawing attention to the hummingbird's critically low numbers and the environmental pressures driving it toward extinction.
