Hopefully they find the feeding stations or take injured ones into rehab. They are beautiful parrots.

I hope they can save the ones left. Their status says vulnerable on the IUCN red list. Only 250-999 adults thought to be left in the wild.

Here's a list of their current threats:
  • Crops, timber, roads, railways, hunting, trapping, volcanoes, storms, floods, habitat issues, GRAPHIC WARNING people eating them & the international pet trade.
They're an Amazon. I hope they can save them in the wild. It's sad how so many blue macaws are only in captivity now. They really do look like a rainbow.

What a beauty! I really hope they do well with the attempted help provided.
As a side note I can’t believe people would eat them.

It's in the IUCN red list as a threat. You might want to blur that. As horrific as I find it, I try to remember I don't know those people or have to live on their average salary (whatever that is).
