Puffins Comes Back
Puffins had not lived in Maine for over 100 years. A group of scientists and students studied why and found that people killed the birds and eat their eggs for food. In the early 1970's the scientists, with the help of the Canadian Wildlife Service, collected just hatched puffin eggs and took them to Maine to start a new colony. They repeated this process until 950 puffin chicks were placed in islands all around Maine.http://www.highlightskids.com/Science/Stories/SS0695_puffinscameBack.asp
