Macaws


Brightly colored Blue Macaws and Scarlet Macaws are a frequent sight in the Amazon Rainforest.  These intelligent cousin to the parrot are social and normally mate for life - making it common to see couples or groups of Macaws together.

Macaws are endangered in the wild due to encroachment and deforestation in the jungle and illegal trapping for the bird trade.
