These birds get a baby shower when they hatch! This is the greater adjutant stork and these celebrations have saved them from extinction. Purnima Devi Barman is from Assam, India and she has completely changed how people view the birds. She invited local women to celebrate the birth of each chick and began organising community events. Purnima has now brought together more than 20,000 women across Assam, who call themselves the Hargila Army. Together they've brought the stork back from the brink of extinction.
