The oldest Laysan albatross was last seen raising a chick on Midway Atoll in 2016, at age 66. They emerged from their bloody rampage leaving fifteen adults dead, and fifteen destroyed nests with either smashed or missing eggs. People who work with wildlife understand that death is a part of life.

And one that is easy to use, because, let’s face it, you want to spend most of your time looking at wildlife, not searching for information.
