Interior Department Starts Drive To Save Puerto Rican Parrot
Interior Department biologists in Laurel Maryland launched a campaign to save the Puerto Rican parrot from extinction. Only 11 birds remain, including two captive females, and researchers plan to trap a wild parrot to mate with a female in captivity. If a male is captured, it will join the captive pair to aid breeding, while a female trapped bird may be sent to the San Diego Zoo. The parrots once thrived in Puerto Rico but were hunted and displaced by competing birds such as the pearly eyed thrasher.
