About These Birds

Rufous-headed Chachalaca

A medium-sized cracid (~630 g) of family Cracidae, with a striking rufous head. Inhabits humid and deciduous forests, forest edges, and scrub in western Ecuador and northwestern Peru. Feeds on fruits and leaves in the forest understory and canopy. Vulnerable due to extensive deforestation in the Tumbesian region, one of the world's most threatened biodiversity hotspots.

Red-faced Guan

アルゼンチン北部とボリビア南部の熱帯・亜熱帯林に生息するグアンで、分布域が限られた希少種。森林の伐採による生息地の消失が脅威となっている。
