Wellington. Los neozelandeses amantes de la fauna salvaje están de luto por la muerte de Nigel, un alcatraz bautizado “el pájaro más solitario del mundo” ya que vivía en una isla ausente de cualquier otro ejemplar de su especie.

Esta ave marina pasó varios años de su vida rodeado de una colonia de falsos pájaros de cemento que los defensores del medioambiente habían instalado en el lugar para atraer a la fauna avícola.
