Amazona Coroniamarilla

El loro coroniamarillo (Amazona ochrocephala) es una gran amazona distribuida desde México y Panamá hasta Perú y Brasil. Habita selvas tropicales densas, bosques secos y manglares, y es conocido por su notable facilidad para aprender a hablar, lo que lo ha convertido en una popular ave de compañía. Sus poblaciones silvestres han disminuido por la destrucción del hábitat y la captura; la UICN lo clasifica como Preocupación Menor (LC).
