A Living Treasure With a Noble Legacy
First recorded in the 1600s and later named for German naturalist Johann Baptist von Spix, the Spixβs Macaw lived exclusively in northeastern Brazil, relying on Caraibeira woodlands for food, nesting, and shelter. Unfortunately, habitat destruction and poaching pushed the species to the brink of extinction. By 2019, it was declared extinct in the wild.
Today, through elite breeding programs supported by conservation pioneers like ACTP and ICMBio, this majestic species is being preserved and cautiously reintroduced into its native habitat. At ShopParrot.com, we partner only with licensed, ethical breeders and conservationists to offer these precious birds to experienced avian lovers and stewards.
