Rare Bird Tastes Like Chicken

My brother Jim sent me this story last night. It seems that a breed of bird thought to be extinct was photographed recently in the Philippines by a documentary crew following the species - just prior to being sold to a poultry market as food.

Not a lot of details accompany the story, but what I want to know is this - if the crew knew the bird was extinct, why didn't they simply purchase it themselves?
