RE: The Bermuda petrel (Pterodroma cahow) was believed to have gone extinct in the 1620s, but was rediscovered 330 years later
Yeah, it's a lot quicker to destroy the population than it is to rebuild it. But they are really slow breeders obviously, so 117 pairs is not that bad. But it will take a very long time before we get back to 500,000 (and sadly I don't think they will ever reach that number unless humans go extinct).
Sorry 117 pairs to be exact!
Hehe, no worries :)
