A small bird which live in the Madagascar island has been officially classified extinct, according to a leading bird conservation organization.
The species, found on Lake Alaotra, the largest lake in Madagascar, dissapeared rapidly due to carnivorous fish and the use of nylon nets by local fishermen.
No hope now remains for this specie. It is another example of how human actions can have bad consequences for the wildlife and the vegetation.
But the news isn't all bad. Conservation projects are having a positive impact on the survival of bird species.
Some species has been passed from "critically endangered" to "endangered" thanks to conservation work to restore its natural vegetation.
