The Loon.
Did you know that the Loon is not considered a "bird" or a "water fowl"? It is a specie of it's own. It also has solid bone which birds/waterfowl do not have. We in North America have all four species. It is considered to be prehistoric of over 60 millions years, and what "God" has created is expected to become extinct in less that 25 years because of our polluted lakes from acid rain etc. The Loon's diet is fish.
I am sharing this information with you from an article which I read about 10 years ago and has stuck with me. If what was said is true I guess the "Loon" now only has about 10 years before they are extinct.
