The wood stork occurs and breeds in Central and South America. I have seen them foraging on sandy shores of rivers deep in the Amazon, enjoyed them in their raucous breeding colonies in the Everglades, flushed them out of canals during walks around my house, and perhaps more importantly contribute to their recovery.

And, in South America, there is at least one species that is being heavily preyed on by North American Minks which are not supposed to be in South America. Their natural range is in a smallish region of southern South America. Some of the lakes they breed on have been stocked with salmon and trout.
