The hyacinth macaw is on Appendix 1 of the Convention on International Trade in Endangered Species (CITES), so international trade is banned. They used to be common in the Pantanal area of Brazil, but mainly because of international smuggling they are on the verge of extinction.
They seem to change colour under different lighting conditions. They have one in Coombs. You occasionally see them advertised in the Vancouver media.
