Why it matters
Jerdon’s Courser is one of the world’s most elusive birds, famously considered extinct for over a century before its dramatic rediscovery in 1986. This rare nocturnal plover, recognized by its broad wings and rounded tail, remains a symbol of extreme conservation significance due to its incredibly restricted range in the scrub forests of Andhra Pradesh, India.
