A masked booby couple approaches an egg on the Phoenix Islands in an undated photo. Sorry, make that "a Tasman booby couple"—an August 2009 study of DNA and fossils says the masked birds are actually Tasman boobies, a species previously thought to have gone extinct centuries ago.

I thought this thread was going to be a about a stripper in the Witness Protection Program who was forced to wear pasties.

Wonder what kind of trap they used to catch these birds?

For all the humor it’s a neat story.

What I learned on my way through this thread:
Female boobys are markedly larger than male boobys...

It started when humans learned that the booby was easy to catch and tasty to eat.

I don't agree with the "easy to catch" part.

But, they are quite "tasty".
