One of the most famous is Rollo Beck and the quelili. Collecting bird species was a very fashionable thing to do, the rarer the more money it brought in. Better to stuff it and exhibit it than to lose it to the forest - this is before conservation was as concept was a thing. We're losing bird species like crazy - mostly due to lose of habitat (the big reason for the quelili as well). We're never going to learn. |
