Birds That Live Long Lose Real Longevity Hopes

Pathfinder Magazine notes no reliable method for determining wild bird lifespans. Captivity data drive most estimates for species like vultures hawks eagles crows and parrots. Reports claim parrots over 80 or 100 years, a macaw to 200 in Italy, a Vienna whiteheaded vulture at 118, while century lives for eagles hawks and crows remain unproven. Elder ducks are also thought to reach a century.
