Green-Winged Macaw

World of Birds- Green-Winged Macaw. April 27, 2013. By far the worst exhibit at Bronx.

? is it a stuffed specimen?
Bronx zoo is a world-class zoological park,....!

I am confident that the intention is to educate visitors on the problems of parrot ownership and to emphasize the inadequacy of the cage.
So, is the bird alive?

No, it's a cardboard cutout. The point is to show how expensive it is to keep an exotic bird happy and healthy.
The pricetag reads:
The cost of owning a parrot for 40 years-
Green-Winged Macaw:
$2,000
Food:
$730 per year
$29,200 per 40 years
Perching:
$120 per year
$4,800 per 40 years
Hours of attention:
2 hours per day
29,200 per 40 years
Health Care:
$??

The reason I sentenced it the way I did is because I wanted to see if anyone believed this was an actualy living bird

I actually don't think the zoo displays Green-Winged Macaws anyway.

Those are posts i am taken in by when it's late in the evening or whatever.....

Is this animal stuffed? I hope it’s an educational exhibit. I’m glad it’s not a real bird. It looks real in the photo.
