Melody blue Spix Macaw (wep.wf)

da.jpgAfter a long time of anxiety and speculation, Brazilian and German conservationists have succeeded in reintroducing two couples back into their natural habitat. Their story is inspirational but also rife with backbiting and jealousies.

The first obstacle was getting enough birds for the exchange. The macaws are monogamous therefore the pairs had to be matched well.

Range

A South African couple is working to save the critically endangered Spix's macaw which was declared extinct in 2000 after years of poaching and habitat loss. They have a small number of the birds that are in captivity and they hope to release them close to Curaca. They refer to the birds as their little blue companions and compared their experience to the story of Presley, the last known Spix's severe macaw from the wild. They say he was as a true survivor, who lost his family but was loyal to the region. They believe that their lives in Caatinga as similar to his, and they feel a strong connection to him.

The discovery of the last Spix's Macaw offered researchers with an opportunity to study its behavior in the wild and gain a better understanding of how the species has survived for such a long time. It also allowed them to make a more precise estimate of the historic population numbers of this unique bird. Researchers were able to collect important details about the bird's daily movements, its seasonal adjustment to drought, and its eating habits. Researchers even monitored attempts to reproduce with an Illiger's and a Spix's hybrid macaw couple, which was a crucial step in the recovery of this species.

It was a remarkable feat that this bird was able to endure and thrive in the wild despite a limited gene pool, and it has also helped scientists understand how these birds could be returned to the wild. The survival of the last bird motivated people to act in order to save other parrots as well as threatened species. It also inspired zoos and other organizations to set up up their own captive breeding programs for these exotic birds.

This working group is an example of how conservation groups and other organizations as well as individuals can work together to save endangered species of wildlife and animals. The group is comprised of Brazilian government officials, zoo reps international holders of the Spix’s macaw keycaps, and ornithologists to achieve one goal in common to save this unique bird.

The working group has already achieved a lot of work. This includes developing plans to reintroduce the bird to the wild. The group also raised funds for community outreach, field research and captive-bred birds for the project. It has also created a permanent committee to save the bird.

Habitat

Ten years ago, the Spix's Macaw (Cyanopsitta Spixii) was considered extinct. It was threatened through habitat destruction and illegal poaching. Aviculturists and ornithologists as well as other experts continue to do their best to bring this iconic bird back from the brink extinction.

A cult animated film and two sequels have made the Spix's Macaw known to millions of people around the world however this is only the tip of the iceberg in the long journey to bring these birds back from the brink. For a long time, a global team has been working to breed and bring back Spix's macaws raised in a captive environment back into the wild.

The Spix's Macaw is native to a small portion of northeast Brazil, called the Caatinga which is an arid region consisting of savannah scrubland flat scattered with creeks that flow through the seasons and gallery forests. It was described in 1819, and is among the least-known Neotropical Parrots. There are only sporadic glimpses of the wild, a few captive birds and Melody Blue Spix Macaw a few museum specimens.

To save the declining population, an international group was established. It was comprised of experts in aviculture who had the last remaining bird, as well as government officials. This group formed a collaboration with the renowned non-profit organization Al Wabra Wildlife Preservation of Qatar to develop an initiative to reintroduce the Spix's Macaws to their natural habitat.

AWWP has acquired and is recovering 2,380 hectares of prime habitat in Caatinga near Curaca, Brazil. AWWP also breeds and rears birds that will be released into the wild. This will provide an animal that is genetically pure for the future generations.

In the wild, Spix's Macaws reside in trees and are rarely seen on the ground. They nest in tree hollows or holes and forage in search of seeds, fruits, nuts, and other species. They can spend up to three-quarters of the time in the nest.

A local community was enlisted as part of the field team to assist to track Spix's macaws. The community was given watches that would be activated if a Spix's buy macaw is identified. This allowed them to monitor the birds in the wild and their daily activities. This approach has been extremely successful.

Diet

The Spix's Macaw (Cyanopsitta spixii) is the only species found in the genus Cyanopsitta. It was listed as extinct in the wild in the year 2019 by the International Union for the Conservation of Nature after the last wild parrot disappeared in 2000. subsequent surveys failed to find any additional birds. However, a reintroduction program is in the process of trying to restore the critically endangered bird to its natural habitat in the Caatinga.

This dry forest is located in the region of northeast Brazil, covering approximately 10 percent of the country. Spix's Macaws nestled in the hollows old caraibeiras, and were also known to eat nuts and seeds.

A reintroduction programme is underway to establish a natural population of the Spix's Macaw. Eight captive-raised Spix's macaws were released in the wild in June. Twelve more birds are scheduled to be released by 2022. They will be joined by Blue-winged Macaws that have been released back into the same area and will help to share knowledge about food sources, nesting and roosting locations.

The reintroduction program has collected vital biological data about the behavior of this rare bird, including details on the patterns of movement throughout the day and adjustments to drought during the season. It has also provided a glimpse into the natural history of Spix's Macaws, which aids in understanding the causes that led to their disappearance.

Spix's Macaws consume the seeds, fruits, and nuts of numerous plants that are native to the Caatinga biome. This includes the pinhao-bravo (Jatropha mollissima) and linhas brasil (Senegalia tenuifolia) as well as the Joazeiro (Ziziphus joazeiro) and facheiro Cactus (Pilosocereus pachycladus). They can also eat the fruit of palms of acai (Acaia oliva) or mofumbo (Combretum leprosum).

Spix's Macaws like all parrots and other birds are social birds and have close relationships with their parents. They have vocalizations and often mimic sounds and speech. They have a mating cry known as "whichaka," described as a short and repetitive grating noise similar to the note of a flutist. When they are in a breeding mode, they are known to fly high and fast.

Breeding

Spix's Macaws are highly intelligent and social birds. They communicate with each other through a range of squawking and screeching sounds. Like many other parrots, mimic human speech. They have a very strict routine, which includes flight patterns and bathing habits. They are also able to recognize other members of their family. This is why are the glaceous macaw and hyancith macaw so alike they are the most sought-after pets, and also a target for the illegal bird trade.

By the early 1980s, only three Spix's Macaws were left in the wild, all of them being poached. A plan to pair the last male and female was foiled in 1995, when poachers killed both birds. Since then, all Spix's Macaws are captive-bred, mostly in Brazil.

The Spix's Macaws in captivity are a mix of birds, and are the descendant of only two individuals. This leaves them vulnerable to illnesses and other environmental issues. The majority of Spix's macaws captivity reside in a breeding centre in Germany. However, this year an agreement between the German conservation center and the Brazilian government was canceled and future plans for repatriation and reintroduction into the wild in doubt.

Despite their shaky numbers, captive-bred Spix's Macaws are showing signs of improvement. This was evident when a Swiss breeder was able to beat a sheikh in Qatar to purchase from a collector three Spix's Macaws that were not part of the breeding program.

In the wake of this and other efforts, the captive-bred birds are starting to reproduce again, although not at a high rate. Reintroducing the birds to the wild will require them to remain healthy and produce. It is important to choose the right birds before releasing them. Macaws should be reproductive and be paired up with siblings or close relatives.

A.jpgThe return of the Spix's Macaw to the wild could prove difficult, Melody Blue Spix Macaw but it's important to try. ABC and its partners have created a reserve system to protect the last remaining habitats of this species. The eight Spix's Macaws that were released recently will be joined by the blue-winged Macaws. These macaws are more prevalent in Caatinga, and they live in areas where the Spix’s macaws are also. These smart birds will help the macaws become more used to the region and provide security in large numbers.
