[Fredslist] Success with endangered scarlet macaws (see photo) in Honduras! But we need help (Gotham magic maybe?)!

[Gail Koelln]

First note that all endangered scarlet macaws (see photo) in our conservation area (the Moskitia region of Honduras) were poached in 2014. As of now, there may only be 400 wild macaws left in the entire country.

 

One Earth Conservation’s successes in Honduras regarding the beautiful scarlet macaw include:

 

-Due to our project, no scarlet macaw from the Moskitia region of Honduras entered the illegal wildife trade in 2016, and none were poached in 2017

-Between the Rescue and Liberation Center and our nest protection program, we have saved 156 scarlet macaws

-This is 25% of all the remaining scarlet macaws in the Moskitia region of Honduras, the last place where the national bird of Honduras has not disappeared and flies free naturally. 

 

LoraKim Joyner, my work partner, is returning today from a trip there. She has had tremendous new success on this trip reaching new villages in many parts of La Moskitia who all want to join the project.

 

BUT…

 

The project is now hampered greatly because someone sold us kerosene instead of gasoline for the only truck we have. It is severely damaged and we need another, hardy vehicle (used or new) for the project.

 

If anyone has any ideas how to help, please email me!

 

Thank you,

Gail
