The main threat to the survival of this magnificent bird is the illegal pet trade.
So far we have looked at land animals, but we must not forget our winged friends that soar up above. Hyacinth macaw is an astonishingly beautiful bird, with feathers in rich blues and green. The main threat to the survival of this magnificent bird is the illegal pet trade. Unfortunately, there is a market for these birds due to their splendour and this is reducing the numbers found in the wild.
