L'esperienza

Macaw populations have declined significantly over the past decades. The main causes are illegal poaching for the pet trade and the loss of mature forest habitat, which they rely on for feeding and nesting.
MRN's vision is to see a future with thriving parrot populations in healthy, connected forests, across their former ranges.
