Conservation efforts are in place to prevent the shoebill from reaching endangered classification.

This means that, while the shoebill is not endangered yet, it is on its way to that point due to habitat destruction and hunting. Each of these cells is produced by a process called meiosis which makes cells containing half the information of the parent.
