Comment : A medium-sized lowland Amazonian macaw, which was classified as endangered, but recent research indicates that its situation is much more favourable and recommends a re-classification. It breeds very well in the LPF breeding centre, from two pairs sent to the LPF by the CITES authorities of the Czech Republic.
