periquito-rabijunco

Um dos papagaios mais amplamente distribuidos e invasores do mundo, as periquitas-de-colar sao nativas da Africa subsaariana e do sul da Asia, mas estabeleceram grandes populacoes assilvestradas em mais de 35 paises da Europa, America do Norte, Japao e Australia apos fugas de aves em cativeiro. Os machos possuem um distinto colar rosa-e-preto. Altamente adaptaveis e prolificos, as populacoes urbanas explodiram em cidades como Londres, Amsterda e Bruxelas, onde se agrupam em enormes bandos e competem com aves nativas que nidificam em cavidades.
