Im a parrot person. I had no idea about the Spix until today. Why isn't this more public? i would like to help. i hand rear exotic parrots part hobbie, part income as i have time. If there is anything i can do to help financially or personally please point me in the right direction. Thank you for what you are doing, extinction events are very serious.

Also, all the people who love the movie Rio, that movie is pretty much why this bird is almost gone.

That's sad. When they get taken out their natural habitat. But people will forever want these as pets. I had my share of few parrots and cockatoos when I was young. Very intelligent animals, with feelings. One time some kid stepped on my female cockatoo and she passed and the very next day my male died. I knew he was sad. I know they have emotions to. Like every other animal. I remember when I was young. I used to go to this farm where they would sell all types of parrots and macaws. Last time I went, there hasn't been any. I thi k they truly are going extinct or are hard to find. Very expensive to. I'm glad you guys are keeping the cycle going. God bless your souls 🙏
@twist5812 жыл бұрын
I was aware of the Spix Macaw's existence BEFORE the movie RIO made them publically well-known in terms of mainstream films and such. I went on a field trip to a local zoo back in the 1990s when I was still in elementary school and witnessed 2 of them in captivity in the bird's aviary. Of course, I was too young to realize what makes them special and unique those years ago, but it's getting really sad that they're facing extinction these days.

@piplup2009 Well the actual Spix's Macaws are currently labeled as Critically Endangered they are said to be extint in the wild but they are not completely sure due to some survey not being complete somewhere. Also I think currently if they want to save them all of the centers should take the same approach as the one in Qatar.
@MiNennuka11 жыл бұрын
I still do not get the idea of keeping birds in almost empty aviaries. I do not know but my mind do not react happly when I see this space. I know that they can destroy a tree if you put one in there, but so what? Just replace it every 6 months or so. Please put some foliage, or ropes they can hang and move frome one to the other and you'll see the difference. Birds are use to this, and they need the stuggle to move around in trees. It is a mental exercise that kept the bird mentally healthy.

According to Act-parrots.org there are about 160 captive spix macaws today (so the breeding has been somewhat successful) and they’re planning to try and reintroduce them to the wild in Brazil by releasing 52 macaws into a protected area. It’s great news! More info here: www.act-parrots.org/spixs-macaw/?lang=en

It is wonderful that you are breeding the Spix's Macaw to release in the wild. Did their numbers plummet due to the pet trade or loss of habitat? How can their environment be changed to keep the released birds as safe as possible? I think the birds should have more enrichment in their aviaries other than dead branches. The greenery is all on the outside.

My question is, how are they ever going to be able to go back to the wild? The offspring will just learn that food is provided for them daily from their parents. Surely they won't have the skills to make it in the wild? Don't get me wrong, I think its wonderful what you're doing, but want to know the answer to that question. Scarlet macaws have been bred here in Belize zoo, but for the reason I mentioned, cannot be released. Please put my mind at rest that there IS a way, I hadn't thought of!

As someone who has bred parrots though admittedly not a species anywhere near as endangered as these the last thing I would do is invite strangers to film them when they were sitting on eggs or feeding chicks. I admire these people no end but even when I was breeding 20 years ago we had nest box cameras that negated the need for interference, why could that footage have been used instead of a camera crew ?

If you are tuning in to see these rare parrots, do not waste your time. Other than a blurry, barely focused view from afar, through the fencing of the cage, you will not see these parrots. By that I mean that if you flipped through a magazine with photos of parrots, you would still not be able to identify these parrots, because this video did not show them with any clarity. The last 4 seconds of this video gives a glimpse of the parrots. So enjoy 6 minutes and 7 seconds of not seeing the parrots, and 4 seconds of sort of seeing the parrots.
