The aged bird appointed Wisdom and her recently hatched chick were spotted alive about a week after Sand Island in the Midway Atoll National Wildlife Refuge was struck by a 5-foot tidal wave unleashed by the 9.0 magnitude earthquake that buffet March 11 off the coast of Japan.

"Because she namely the oldest, she's competent to provide us some message that not additional albatross tin at this point in time, and that's accurate how long-living are these beasts," Stieglitz said.
