Synopsis

The Scarlet Macaw, a vibrant symbol of the Mexican rainforest, is disappearing. Conservation and Recovery of the Scarlet Macaw in Mexico explores the tireless efforts of Natura y Ecosistemas Mexicanos (NEM) to save the last remaining viable population of these iconic birds. Facing the constant threat of poaching, NEM works diligently to rescue hatchlings from vulnerable nests. By forging partnerships with local communities, they have developed a network of dedicated individuals to locate and protect macaw nests.
