About the Chestnut-fronted macaw
A small macaw, mostly green, with chestnut forehead and cheeks and a flash of red beneath the wing. It flies in family flocks. Though its population is stable, in the Caribbean region it is pressed by the illegal capture of chicks.
Its journey back to the wild
Every individual follows the same open method: rescue and health evaluation, then free-flight training through increasingly complex environments (pre-release), and finally release with months of feeder-based post-release monitoring back in the tropical dry forest. Your sponsorship keeps that whole process running.

The Chestnut-fronted macaw in the field
Real field notes from our team — keepers, rangers, the vet, neighbours — from the days this species turns up around the reserve. Every note is reviewed before we publish it.
What you sponsor is a process — not a pet. In Colombia, wild fauna belongs to the Nation: it cannot be owned, bought or "adopted". When you sponsor a species you fund its rehabilitation and release process — food, veterinary care, free-flight training, post-release monitoring and the community work that keeps released birds safe. Individuals are identified only by their numbered ID tags, never as pets.
As a sponsor you receive photos and videos of the process, updates from our rangers and veterinarian, a monthly report, team testimonials, and recognition in our sponsors list and on social media.
