Researchers were able to study the behavior of the Spix's Macaw in wild, and better understand how this species has survived for so long. It also allowed them to make a more precise estimate of the historic population numbers of this unique bird. Researchers were able to gather important data about the bird's daily movements and seasonal adaptation to drought and its food habits. They also monitored attempts at reproduction with an Illiger's and Spix's hybrid macaws which was a significant step in the rehabilitation of this species.

It was a remarkable feat that this bird was able to endure and thrive in the wild despite an insufficient gene pool and it has also helped researchers understand how these birds could be reintroduced back to the wild. The survival of the last bird inspired people to take action to save other parrots as well as threatened species. Zoos and other groups to set up their own captive breeding programs for these exotic birds.

This group serves as a model for how conservation groups and other organizations can work together to conserve endangered species of wildlife and animals. This group consists of Brazilian government officials, representatives from zoos, international holders of the Spix’s chestnut fronted macaw and ornithologists, with an aim in common to save this rare bird.

The group has already completed a great deal of work. This includes developing plans to reintroduce the bird back to the wild. The group also raised funds to fund community outreach as well as field research and captive-bred birds for the project. It also has established an ongoing committee to oversee the reintroduction of the bird.

Habitat

Endangered by poaching and habitat destruction The Spix's Macaw (Cyanopsitta spixii) was thought to be extinct in the wild ten years ago. Aviculturists and ornithologists as well as other experts continue to work hard to save this iconic bird back from the brink extinction.

The Spix's Pixie mini macaw is known to millions around the globe thanks to a popular animated film and two sequels. This is just the tip of the iceberg on the long road of returning these birds. A team of international experts has worked for decades to breed and reintroduce Spix's macaws born in captivity back into the wild.

The Spix's Macaw is an indigenous species that is found in a small area of northeast Brazil called the Caatinga. This arid area is home to flat savannah scrubland that is which is surrounded by galleries and streams that flow through the season. It was first described in 1819 and is among the least-known Neotropical Parrots. There are only sporadic sightings in the wild, a few birds that are kept in captivity and a few museum specimens.

To save the declining population In order to save the declining population, an international group was created. It was comprised of aviculturists who held the last remaining bird and government officials. This group formed a collaboration with the world-renowned non profit organization Al Wabra Wildlife Preservation of Qatar to develop a program to reintroduce Spix's Macaws back to their natural environment.

AWWP has acquired and is renovating 2,380 hectares of prime habitat in Caatinga area, close to Curaca, Brazil. AWWP also breeds and rears birds that will be released in the wild. This will provide an animal that is genetically pure for the future generations.

In the wild, Spix's Macaws reside in trees and are rarely seen on the ground. They nest in tree hollows or holes, and hunt in search of seeds, fruits, nuts, and other plants. They typically spend up to a third of the day in the nest.

A local community was recruited as part of the field team to help to track Spix's macaws. Members of the community were given watches which could be activated if the Spix's macaw was detected, allowing them to keep track of the birds and their daily activities in the wild. This approach has been extremely successful.

Diet

The Spix's hythian macaw for sale (Cyanopsitta spixii) is the only species in the genus Cyanopsitta. It was listed as extinct in the wild in 2019 by the International Union for the Conservation of Nature following the disappearance of the last wild parrot disappeared in 2000, and subsequent surveys did not find any additional birds. A reintroduction program is in the process of attempting to restore this critically threatened bird to its native home in the Caatinga.

This region in northeast Brazil is home to about 10% of the entire country. Spix's Macaws nestled in the hollows of old caraibeira trees and were known to feed on seeds and nuts.

Reintroduction of the Spix's Macaw into the wild is currently in progress. Eight captive-raised Spix's macaws were released into the wild in June. Twelve more birds are scheduled to be released by 2022. They will be joined by a group of Blue-winged macaws which have been reintroduced. They will share information about food sources, nesting and roosting locations.

The reintroduction program has already obtained valuable biological data on the behavior of the bird, which includes details of the patterns of movement and adaptations to drought.

Reintroducing the birds into the wild will require that they remain healthy and produce. Selecting the right birds to release is also critical. The macaws need to be at a reproductive age, and they should be paired with an older sibling or close relatives.

Bringing the Spix's macaw back to the wild could be difficult, but it is essential to try. ABC and its partners have developed reserves to protect the last remaining habitats of this species. The eight recently released Spix's macaws will be joined by Lolita blue & gold macaw-winged macaws which are more prevalent in the Caatinga and are found in overlapping areas with the Spix's macaws. These intelligent birds will aid the macaws get familiar with the area and will offer the security of a large number.
