Welcome
Hi, welcome to Wikipedia! I have a question about your recent edit on Ivory-billed woodpecker. Do you have a source that indicates that the Nature Conservancy purchased 12,000 acres rather than 120,000, or are you just surmising that based on the size of the Cache River Refuge? This report from 2005 says "The Nature Conservancy recently purchased almost 20,000 additional acres near where the bird was first spotted. The long-term goal is to add another 200,000 acres to the Big Woods, which currently covers 550,000 acres mainly within the Cache River National Wildlife Refuge and the White River National Wildlife Refuge." This would seem to indicate that 12,000 acres cannot be correct. Perhaps the confusion is that the purchase included land in the White River Refuge as well as the Cache River Refuge, which our article should be clearer about.
