Lear’s Macaw 2023 Conservation Update 

The Lear’s Macaw has made a dramatic recovery in the last decade with its population now reaching over 2,000 individuals. But with an increased population, the threat to the species is not enough natural food to maintain a healthy population. This is why this project by Jardins da Arara de lear is so important. They want to work with local communities to increase the Licuri Palm tree in the area.
American Bird Conservancy (ABC) partner Jardins da Arara de lear has been working to ensure food for the increasing population. It is important to protect the species’ full life cycle needs to remove any threats for the future.
