A Golden Conure with a neck injury


Golden Conures are so kind and loving that they will adopt orphaned Conures and raise them as their own. Tragically, these beautiful birds are fast disappearing from the wild

Native to Brazil, Golden Conures are scarce in aviculture although they are gaining in popularity. They are also known as the Queen of Bavaria Conure and live in dryer regions of the rainforest along watercourses.

First noted by Gmelin in 1788, Golden Conures are endangered in the wild due to habitat loss. (Phoenix Zoo)
