On All Things Considered, NPR's Noah Adams, Linda Wertheimer, and Robert Siegel and MPR's Lorna Benson bring you world, national, and regional news. The show got its start as a daily update on Watergate, and continues today as an award-winning source of breaking news and insightful interviews. The U.S. Fish and Wildlife Service is putting the final touches on a plan to restore an historic migration route of one of North America's most endangered birds. The Whooping Crane was on the verge of extinction in the early 1940s, with only 16 birds left in the world. The species is now about 400 strong, with three separate groups of birds nesting in the wild.
Officials hope to establish a second migration route, from Wisconsin to Florida.
