amazing how one children's movie from 11 years ago was able to save the species from extinction. the workers and writers of the movie has got to be proud lol
What has that show has to do with these birds
The movie have nothing to do with this.
Like at all
@@pipipupu5104 are you dumb?
@Dein Silver Drac What show? The person you responded to said a children's movie. The movie they refer to is called "Rio," which was released in 2011. The movie spread some awareness about the Spix's Macaw being nearly extinct, and therefore, many people focused on possibly increasing this species of birds.
@@SirVictor123
Yes my mistake
But no the movie was not here to spread awareness about the situation and did not help at all as far as i know.
The only effect of this movie was making some people realise
Ho wait blue macaw doesn't exist.
Ho wait it's inspired from Spix macaw who are extinct in the Wild.
Ho wait parrots came from poaching, nah that's just a kid story they are breed in captivity.
It's not like save Willy wich actually saved keiko the orca and spread awareness and helped to make people realise
Maybe putting the most intelligent and sensible animals of the ocean, a 9 meters apex predator in a gold fish tank to be a slave for our entertainment was not the best Idea.
Rio didn't try to spread awareness, did not helped or gave money or anything.
They created a child story about something similar.
And didn't even showed spix macaw but a New specie that they invented and put a parrot as the big Bad guy in a love story between two blue macaw.
Poaching is nearly a background thing.
The story and morale revolve around just that
"Will those two character that don't have anything in common and hate eachother be in love, will blu learn to fly"
Same for the second movie wich used a false morale on deforestation and only talk about
"Ho man he is jealous of a handsome man better than him and is out of his element and can't get accepted by the family of his wife".
That's all.
Also
Nope not at all, the captive breeding program was way older than that, they were still searching for the last individuals in cage of some random bird owner.
So they could have enough individual to have a population that won't go inbred in 20 years.
Rio?
I thought the same thing
The birds yes
yes the macaw from this animated movie are inspired from them.
but only inspired, in the movie they just look like a Hyacinth macaw, only slighly smaller, withouth the yellow and a lighter blue colour.
while in rality they are quite different, smaller, with lighter greyish head, they don't have the long tail or same profile.
Yes I thought about the same thing. It is Rio.
This is the coolest thing to ever happen this week. Can't wait to see more of these little guys
These birds are my favorite parrot since their the protagonists of the movie, Rio. As well as their beautiful blue and cyan feather mix.
Can't wait to see them flying around Brazil again :)
hi...Do u live in brazil?
@@isacmelendez990 yes
@@Vibin_jellies cool!
🤩
@@Vibin_jellies Have you friend one? ^^
I love how my childhood movie rio shown beauty and rarity of the blue spix macaws which helped specialist protect the species and bring them back to life, and i also love how they're going to release them back in the wild soon all of this just because of my childhood movie. 💙 (also sorry if this doesn't make sense i was tired typing this lol)
God these birds are beautiful. So glad they’re coming back to the wild. Thank you French man
I'm so happy their back thanks to all scientists
Who’s not thinking about Blu and jewel while watching this?
We should protect the endangered species 😭❤️
The news said the blue macaw are officially extinct now.
We should bro
These birds 🐦 are so beautiful 🤩 the colors are gorgeous
I’m proud that the spix macaws are finally returning to their home!! Welcome home buddies! And now hopefully there won’t be any poachers or builder people whoever won’t come back to take more land than society really needs.
It’s time for another movie
🥳🥳🥳🥳🥳
Happy that a dinosaur was saved from extinction.
Red from Angry Birds referenced the fact that birds are dinosaurs in The Angry Birds Movie, and Angry Birds’ first game to crossover, was Rio.
Not only that, but a Disney Dinosaur!
@@kikicallahan3662
Bluesky not disney no ?
Birds are in fact, dinosaurs. They're part of the dinosauria family
Great job saving this species!
" It is important to remember that it is because of us that it was going extinct in the first place, so it is a good lesson for people to show we can do this, but also to stop threatening other species. "
- Tim Bouts
Those birds are similar Blu and Jewel from the movie Rio. I’m proud that the macaws are returning home where they truly belongs. Welcome home Spix Macaws. Let’s hope there will be no hunters, smugglers, poachers, loggers, or building people to destroy their land because that is the Spix Macaws home.
They are similar because this beauties are the same species as Blu and Jewel!
And don't worry, theit habitat is under protection and of all the spix macaws that were set free only one has died, not because a hunter but because a bigger bird. So they are going really good
RIO
Thank god they go to wild
Back 2014 im just a 6 years old who love animals and watch rio
Who knew a movie that has blue macaws as the stars ( blue and jewel and their family ) would help the real species!!!! I would not be surprised if the macaws where named after the characters blue, jewel, Carla, bia, tiago, mimi, Eduardo, and so on
YAYYY!!! WOOHOO
Reminds me of Rio
oh look it's rio
Let's go Macaw!!
Thanks to Rio movies it made them come back
Makes me sad what colonialism has done to these birds and other macaw species esp the ones who have gone extinct like in the carribean
Let's such hope they don't become extinct.
This is great news for the Rio birds! 💖💖🦜💙💙
is they guy from Rio
🥳🥳🥳🎉🎉🎉🐦🐦🦜🦜❤️❤️❤️
Hiya! Blu and Jewel! So happy for the birds!
My mind, macaws along with blu and his family are dancing in the skies of the Rio xD
This is amazing
Hopefully there's guard on the forest to protect this little beautiful creatures. Poachers need to be extinct!
Respect to spix's macaws for Clutching up
Spin Parrots are lived in Brazil
Rio live action??!!
YESSS
Party in Ipanema, baby!
Once released people are going to poach them in the wild and try to smuggle them to other countries for the pet trade. So sad
Thank god they not extinct
Blu and jewelry clutched ;)

I am now becoming a conservationist and I will do everything I can to stop the spread of timber and arable land and I will ban all cars from forested areas and I will save them from being bulldozed! You may know how many of them there are now and I love the movie RIO
Now we need a Vaquita savior
Probably too late for them.
They don't reproduce or even exist in captivity.
Only 8 individuals left.
Not few hundreds like the Spix macaw.
So we should take their DNA and work on cloning technologies and maybe that in few decade they will be cloned.
Too late I'm afraid
After seeing last male kuao o_o depressing extinction story in Hawaii........ atleast something good to hear.......
In solitary confinement sans green matter but good news.
I wonder how it is possible to wipe out a species of bird that lives in the largest mainland habitat in the world. In Brazil there are places where no man has ever been
For the Dodo who couldn't fly and lived only on Mauritius (an island), it's easy to explain.
If the needs for this bird must be extremely specific, how can a reintroduction to the wild be successful?
I have 2 of them, 2 males saddly
❤😮
How do they prepare them for release?
thay gave them gps to they can track them to make shere they are alive.
Wait, Blu from Rio is back from extinction?!?
You do watch Rio Movie this is extinct animals
In 2050 Will There Be More Blue Spixs Or No More [Reply This]
St. Francis really made it and now he has saved their species
Just saw the news, says these birds are now extinct..
They aren't. The released birds are doing extremely well and the ones in captivity are still around
They are extinct in the wild, not extinct as a species.
Extinct in the wild only
I know a macaw and he is not this respectable.
I'm so happy
cap
Very lovely
Amen
This parrot is so pretty and cute we can keep some as a pet
That's one of the reasons why they were becoming extinct in the first place.
LETS GOOOOOO
Yeeeeaaaah
YIPPY
So glad I found this!🤘😝🤘
Exactly how much is there now?
Well if am finna say 160 in captive around the world ik there was a just a few born so yea
@@respecteverybodynohate9637 how do you know how many there are?
@DOOM GUY well go google search blue spix macaw and go to the facility there around 160 to 180 and I believe it said there was new clutch born but sadly most the eggs don't hatch plus inbreeding is apart
That's amazing!!
so what does it mean like they are not the original macaw birds and there just hybrid from other birds? correct me if im wrong
wrong
it's the same specie
it's just that it was declared extinct.
but only in the wild, there was still few individual in captivity and zoo have tried to find them all (they were kept as pet by people like most parrots)
i think there's 200 of them in captivity
most of them in zoos like germany but not acesible to the public.
there's only two zoo who present those birds.
one in China and one in Belgium (this one) and now they stopped showing them to the public and prepare their reintroduction.
the zoo name is Pairi daisa, the most beautifull zoo of Europe (really, there's cascade, temples and houses of ddirerent cultures around the world created by natives guys, a lot of rock and plants, and a lot of animals too, including several pandas, gharial, giant chinese salamanders, walrus, condor tasmanians devil and the largest elephant herd of Europe).
it's not the best zoo of Europe, only the prettiest.
and the pairi daisa fondation have several conservation project, including the Spix macaw one, they built a breeding and reintroduction center to prepare the bird to be left in the wild.
@@deinsilverdrac8695 does France has a national park
@@pipipupu5104
11 national parc.
But quite small and not a lot of wildlife ( Red/roe/fallow deer, boar, owl, eagle, beaver, ibex, vultures, chamoi, maybe some lynx and wolves in few of them).
They are not really greatly protected and not really wild like African and American reserve wich still have plenty of wildlife with bears, bison, wolves, puma moose, and antelope/elephant/hippo/girafe/hyena/leopard/Zebra/lion/buffalo etc).
But that's not really the topic here.
It's Belgium not France.
And it's a zoo, not a wildlife reserve or national parc.
And they will be released in the north of Brazil in a natural reserve.
@@deinsilverdrac8695 oh I used to think whole Europe have forests and national parks like India or Africa.
@@pipipupu5104
?????
Really man.
We had improved a lot since few decade.
Reintroduction of european bison, vultures, bears and wolves, increase in a lot of species population
But man.
Europe is the most crowded continent for it's small size.
500 millions people only with UE.
It's mostly cities and rural area
With a lot of empty biodiversity poor wood.
And few forest and mountains.
There's barely no wilderness.
Unlike IS wich destroyed the nature at massive scale for 300 years.
In Europe we destroyed nature for thousands of years.
Auroch (large wild cow) and wild horse, wild donkey, leopard disapeared form Europe.
And bison, wolves, lynx, moose, brown bears are only few thousands at most.
And almost went extinct in the last century.
