To conclude, let us return to the Spix’s Macaw, symbol of Loro Parque Foundation. Two beautiful young females are visible in the breeding centre. The breeding pair will be transferred soon into a separated facility very well protected from potential pathogens. This pair under Brazilian ownership, has for the moment given four young females. Fortunately, repeated contacts with other centres and private collections will allow common actions, with exchanges or loans of mates in order to help other pairs to breed and to bring new blood to this species. All the hope, to see one day this such beautiful bird free in its native gallery forest in Brazil and to reproduce there, resides on the success of these closely managed programs, and on the protection and regeneration of its habitat in its native country.
