Capuchin monkey Cebus apella

is a species of medium sized monkey, almost half a meter long, not counting the famous prehensile tail. The color of the coat varies greatly. The skull and teeth of this primate are robust and can eat hard food that is difficult to chew. They are extremely intelligent and thus become victims of humanization and are highly sought after in the illegal pet trade.
Capuchin monkeys are diurnal animals and live in groups, varying in number depending on the location.
The domestication of capuchin monkeys, contrary to what many people think, causes suffering and psychological damage to these animals that are deprived of socializing with others of their species, losing their natural abilities.

Os macacos-prego são animais diurnos e vivem em grupos, em número variável dependendo do local.

A domesticação dos macacos-prego, diferente do que muitas pessoas pensam, causa sofrimento e danos psicológicos a esses animais que são privados de conviver com outros de sua espécie, perdendo suas habilidades naturais.

Black howler Alouatta caraya

is a large monkey in relation to other primates such as the capuchin monkey. The howler monkey can emit powerful sounds that can be heard from miles away. These "cries" serve to protect themselves from other groups. They are very selective and sophisticated in their diet and like only a few types of plants. They eat and digest slowly, taking a good part of the day with gastronomic activities.

Hyacinth macaw Ara ararauna

The Hyacinth Macaw is one of the best known wild birds and one of the most emblematic species of the Brazilian Amazon. Thanks to its wide distribution and large estimated population in South and Central America, the Hyacinth Macaw is not yet threatened by extinction, but its population has been greatly reduced due to environmental destruction and illegal trade.

The scarlet macaw Ara chloropterus

or Great Red Macaw, measures up to ninety centimeters in length and weighs up to 1.5 kilograms. The nest of this bird is made in hollow trees, but it also takes advantage of holes in rocky walls to lay its eggs. A curious fact: the male is responsible for ensuring the feeding of both the female and the chicks, and like the Canindé, he is faithful, living with his mate for life.

Toco Toucan Ramphastos toco Ramphastos toco

The Toco Toucan is the largest of all those in its family. The most notable feature of this bird is its large orange beak, which can measure up to 22 cm. It has a spongy bony tissue that makes the bill very light, making it easier to fly. It feeds on insects, lizards, eggs, chicks of other birds, and especially fruits.

Blue-fronted Parrot Amazona aestiva Amazona aestiva

is native to Brazil and the most popular and many people have the habit of raising them as pets, ignoring their natural needs as a wild animal. It is one of the most intelligent birds on the planet and can live up to eighty years.

Barn owl Athene cunicularia

They are small and spend most of their time on the ground to protect themselves from the heat by digging holes where they also make their nests. It occurs in almost all of Brazil, with the exception of the Amazon. They can measure up to 27cm. They live at least nine years in the wild and ten years ex-situ. The greatest enemy of the Barn Owl is man. They are constantly victims of being run over on dirt roads.

Long-eared Owl Asia clamator

is large and can measure up to 37 cm in length. It has a heart-shaped face and from a distance can be mistaken for a cat because of the long feathers that form "ears" on its head. It is nocturnal and begins its activities when the sun goes down. With the increasing urbanization of forested areas, it is often seen on roadside wires and posts being easy prey for hunters, collectors, and illegal traders.

Barn Owl Tyto alba

It likes open places and mild temperatures, neither too cold nor too hot. The peculiarly shaped face and black eyes give the flying bird a strange and striking appearance. The ridge of feathers above the beak resembles a nose. They usually bathe in pools of water and small streams. They are usually sedentary, not leaving an area once settled.

Maracana Parakeet Psittacara leucophthalmus

is a wild bird that lives almost everywhere in Brazil, being found in forests and cities. It lives in large flocks of 30 to 40 individuals (or more), which sleep collectively in various places, so they need a lot of space.

Parakeet Brotogeris tirica

The parakeet loves to eat fruits and sunflower seeds. They inhabit forests, open areas such as parks and gardens. They imitate with perfection the vocalization of other birds. The sexes are similar, but the male is usually more robust and "talkative", with more ability to imitate any kind of sound. When they feel threatened they can hang from branches, upside down and move slowly on the ground to protect themselves from other animals, but with this they end up being easy prey for man.

Cockatoo Myiopsitta monachus

is popularly known as maritaca. Its beak is small and orange. The chest plumage is scaly, and the wings and tail have long bluish feathers. Adult caturritas are 28 to 30 cm in total length. It is a gregarious, non-migratory species. While parrots, macaws and other birds nest in hollow holes in trees, ravines or termite mounds, the carruitas form community nests, like small cities.

Ararajuba Guaruba guarouba

Known as the imperial parrot, the Ararajuba, with its gold-colored plumage, is a native and endemic bird of the country's northern region that is threatened with extinction. The traffic in wild birds contributes significantly to the reduction of these individuals in nature.
