About: Great green macaw

“With so few left in Ecuador, the Awacachi Corridor, between Cotacachi-Cayapas Ecological Reserve and the Awá Ethnic Reserve, may be an extremely important stronghold for the species.
FFI is proud to have safeguarded the Corridor and to be actively supporting its conservation to this day.”
Berry Mulligan
FFI Americas & Caribbean Programme Officer

An image relating to Great green macaw
The image of a tropical rainforest wouldn’t be complete without a gaggle of squawking parrots. The great green macaw is one of the larger and more colourful parrots in South and Central America’s forests.

Sadly, as their habitat disappears, so do they. As little as 30% of its original range may remain. Fauna & Flora International (FFI) is working to save threatened Chocó rainforest in north-western Ecuador, one of the last places the bird survives in the country.
