A series of remarkable new camera trap videos has revealed some of the first ever footage of a critically endangered bird, the Sira Currasow, and has confirmed the presence of the vulnerable spectacled bear, on which the children's character Paddington Bear is based, in the Sira Communal Reserve of Peru. The hidden cameras also captured 30 species of mammals including jaguar, giant anteater, Brazilian tapir and puma.
