Ara ambiguus

The Great Green Macaw is a species of macaw in the Psittacidae family. It lives mainly in humid rainforests or in the forested foothills of hills, but can be seen feeding in more open areas. It can be seen at altitudes of up to 1,000 meters in Honduras, Colombia and Ecuador. The cynomolgus macaw is a threatened species, classified as endangered in its natural state. Its decline is due to habitat loss caused by excessive deforestation. Today, most of the remaining habitat is protected by nature reserves and conservation programs.
