The Ibis Migration Flight
Bioparc Valencia strengthened its role in an international conservation project by helping guide 30 northern bald ibises on a 2,500-kilometre migration behind an ultralight aircraft. The striking sight of ‘adoptive mothers’ flying with the birds created a natural news hook around restoring a species extinct in Europe for centuries.
Why it worked: The visual spectacle of humans piloting an ultralight to physically teach an extinct-in-Europe species its route delivered a rare, cinematic news moment.
The lesson: Consider staging a live, visually arresting demonstration that solves a problem in real time—invite media to witness and measure the outcome.
