These are actually called Hyacinth macaws so everyone knows :-) They are one of the most sought after as pets but their numbers in the wild are decreasing. Please do not support the capturing of these amazing animals. If you want a bird, go to a rescue center.

they're gorgeous but not what i expected, was anyone else thinking blue cockatoo when they saw rio lols
its a bit like finding nemo, once the movie came out everyone wants one, in my opinion they sorta didnt get the message of the movies, they're endangered, help saving dont promote the buying, or snatching :( those birdies are beautiful by the way :P

@Khalore Dude you think these birds are becoming extinct?Seriously?There not in that category thought they are endangered.Just look at the Spix's Macaw and the Seychelles Magpie Robin.There are less then 100 of them.Only 80-90 Spix's Macaws and less than 50 Seychelles Magpie Robins.The Blue Macaw is a beautiful bird.All birds are beautiful.But there are birds that are major extinction issues.

These are hyacinth macaws. It is true they are an endangered species with roughly 10,000 world wide. There numbers have been holding some what steady thanks in part to a ban on capture and importing/exporting these wonderful creatures, and also in part to private owners. There is an estimated 55-60% living with private owners that adopt captive hatched babies.
