"Rare Yellow-Crested Bird Rediscovered in Stunning First Photo"

TL;DR Summary
Researchers from the University of Texas at El Paso captured the first ever photo of the yellow-crested helmetshrike, a bird species not seen for nearly 20 years, during an expedition in the Democratic Republic of the Congo. The team also rediscovered an amphibian species, the red-bellied squeaker frog. However, both species face threats from habitat loss due to agriculture and mining, prompting discussions on conservation efforts to protect the region's forests and the helmetshrike.
