Description
This macaw looks so aware and seems to be looking right at me, greeting me! Macaw are long-tailed New World parrots. This one looks to me like a Hyacinth macaw. The majority of macaws are now endangered in the wild. Five species are already known to be extinct. The greatest problems threatening the macaw population are the rapid rate of deforestation and the illegal trapping of birds for the bird trade. The problem with illegal trafficking in macaws is clear when it is realized that a single hyacinthin macaw can fetch US$6,500 to US$12,000 in the United States.. In February of 1999, authorities interdicted an effort to smuggle 24 hyacinthin macaw eggs from Sao Paulo, Brazil to Pennsylvania, with the value of the eggs estimated at US$10,000 each.
