Storm's stork (Ciconia stormi) is a medium-sized stork species that occurs primarily in lowland tropical forests of Malaysia, Indonesia and southern Thailand. It is considered to be the rarest of all storks, and is estimated to number at most 1,750 wild individuals across its geographic range. The population has long been in decline and the primary cause is widely considered to be deforestation of its native habitat. Wikipedia →
