About These Birds

Atlantic Puffin

「海のピエロ」とも呼ばれるニシツノメドリは、北海の崖に穴を掘って営巣する魅力的な海鳥。口蓋に後ろ向きの棘があるため、一度に12匹もの魚を横向きにくわえて運ぶことができる。気候変動と乱獲による餌不足が脅威となり、個体数が減少している。

コンゴウインコ

The scarlet macaw is one of the most iconic tropical birds with its dazzling tricolor plumage. These highly intelligent parrots form lifelong pair bonds and can live over 75 years in captivity. They play an important ecological role as seed dispersers in Neotropical rainforests.
