Description
We are a non-profit working to preserve wildlife and wild places in Costa Rica by supporting parrot conservation through education, rescue, and reintroduction. Our flagship species, the locally endangered scarlet macaw, is important to the biodiversity and sustainability of the rainforest as it disperses seeds for many of the most important trees. Our ultimate goal is to ensure that endangered species and their habitats will be around for future generations.
