The population of the Central American scarlet macaw ( Ara macao cyanoptera) and other parrots have and continue to decline throughout the region largely from poaching to supply the illegal wildlife trade. Conservation efforts address this issue through protection efforts, including community patrols and government engagement, as well as nest monitoring, rescue and release operations, capacity building, and education and consciousness raising programs, all of which rely on long-lasting relationships and commitment. Using these principles, in 2010, a coalition of people came together, including the authors, to build a conservation program against overwhelming odds and with surprising success.
中美洲绯红金刚鹦鹉(Ara macao cyanoptera)及其他鹦鹉的种群数量在整个地区已经减少,并且仍在持续下降,这主要是由于偷猎以供应非法野生动物贸易。保护工作通过多种保护措施来解决这一问题,包括社区巡逻和政府参与,以及巢穴监测、救援和放生行动、能力建设,还有教育和提高意识项目,所有这些都依赖于持久的关系和投入。基于这些原则,2010年,包括作者在内的一群人联合起来,克服重重困难,成功建立了一个保护项目。
