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.
Horned Curassow
A large cracid (~3.7 kg) of family Cracidae, bearing a prominent red casque on the forehead resembling a unicorn horn. Found in humid lowland and foothill forests in Bolivia and possibly Peru. Forages on the forest floor for fallen fruits. Critically Endangered; one of the rarest birds in South America with extremely limited range, severe habitat loss, and hunting pressure.
