Bird park

Sightseeing nature tour in Iguassu Falls

Bird Park   The Park keeps over 900 birds from 150 species, the majority being Brazilian birds. One third of these species is considered threatened; All the birds in the Park have come from zoos or IBAMA-authorized breeders; The Bird Park will not, under any term, take in animals from unknown sources or originated in animal trafficking. All animals are registered with a report being sent yearly to the Brazilian Zoo Society and the official Ibama. Some of these birds have been rehabilitated and cannot return to nature.   Reproduction The reproduction of animals in captivity is important to assure biological diversity, guaranteeing ex-situ genetically feasible populations. Captive animals also supply valuable information and better knowledge of the fauna. Despite the short time since its foundation, the Bird has had success in the reproduction of some species, among which we single out several species of arasari, trumpet birds, crested jays, parakeets, bue and yellow macaw, crowned-grou, vulturina and others. The purple-faced parrot (Amazona brasiliensis) is expected to reproduce and to supply information for the preservation of this threatened species. *Duration: 2h *Daily
