Is jewel the parrot a blue macaw?
Jewel and Blu from the movie "Rio" are Spix Macaws. Not to be confused with blue and gold macaws or hyacinth macaws, Spix macaws are very endangered in captivity and appear to be extinct in the wild.
Why is the Spix's Macaw endangered?
Spix's macaws aren't extinct. There are 120 individuals in captivity, and not the whole range of Spix's macaws has been surveyed, so they haven't been declared Extinct in the Wild; instead, their conservation status is Critically Endangered. However, the last wild Spix's macaw was seen in 2000. They are threatened by habitat loss and the introduction of the Africanized bee, which competes for the same nesting sites as Spix's macaws and can sting them to death. Another factor that contributed to the plight of Spix's macaws was the illegal pet trade.
How many Spix's Macaws are there left?
None! They are now extinct! actually they might not be extinct because they might be hiding from humans that's what my Dads said he found a spix macaw last year he is a zoologist he went to Brazil and found a female nesting and he said that he saw lots so he didnt told anyone where the spix macaws are hiding he told me where thou.

Do macaws bite?
This is an often question that is raised. Wether its from the small 'Spix Macaw' to the great 'Blue and yellow Macaws', it entirely depends on its history of owners. If the Macaw was hand-reared, and received a lot of attention and company during its first years, it would be tamed and would not see the need to bite. Wild Macaws however, will bite if they feel they are in danger or their young is being threatened. This goes for every bird, hand-reared are obviously more tamed and will not bite regularly, wild Macaws or non-hand-reared Macaws will.
