    Andean Cock-Of-The-Rock

    One of South America’s beautiful and most striking birds as they’re the national bird of Peru. They get their name from the cloud rainforests found across Venezuela to Bolivia, as males have a recognizable disk like crest and a scarlet to orange color scheme for their plumage.

It has only relatively recently been rethemed from the rainforest to south america, and most of its geographicaly outlying species being relocated or removed. It currently...

    Zoos of the Incas

    Central and South American giraffe population
