      This is a bit misleading of a video. Puffins as a whole were not going extinct. (For example, the Alaskan variety population was doing fine. ) this particular Eastern Atlantic variety was endangered in Maine as well as portions of southeastern Canada.

    Puffins have a special place in my heart. My Dad called my daughter Puffin since the day she was born,(1987) until he passed in 2015. Ok, now I am crying.

    One big hole in the story, they forgot to say they got their breeding pairs to start the new population from Canada, where three different breeds still existed.

    There is a coop puffin section at the Baltimore aquarium for those that can't make it up to Maine from that area. It's not the same but the Atlantic puffin at the aquarium are adorable and fun!

    There are approximately 350 to 400 thousand Atlantic Puffins in Atlantic Canada. Approximately 12 million of breeding age worldwide and 24 million grand total. There's more to the world than just the USA ☺️✌️🇨🇦❤️🇺🇸

    I did a report when I was in elementary school, in the 80s. According to my sources, the puffin was extinct. I don't know what to think now.

    I LOVE puffins, cute, they are so loyal , gentle and curious birds on the planet. They have to be protected. especially from China, we know they like to make animals extinct or near extinction for the sake of their medicine fads. Here in the UK we protect our birds. Puffins are protected here too.

    This little birds the puffins we need to guard them and protect them.we're destroying our World we live in. And future generations will only read 📚 about certain animals that had fo e extinct because of our own mistakes not protecting our Mother Earth and this is why we're getting all this hurricanes and big earthquakes land slides because Mother nature is restoring and healing herself from us the humans.
