papagaio-campeiro

O papagaio-de-coroa-amarela (Amazona ochrocephala) é uma grande amazona distribuída desde o México e o Panamá até ao Peru e ao Brasil. Habita selvas tropicais densas, florestas secas e manguezais, sendo conhecido pela notável facilidade em aprender a falar, o que o tornou uma popular ave de estimação. As suas populações silvestres diminuíram devido à destruição do habitat e à captura; a IUCN classifica-o como Pouco Preocupante (LC).
