El Yunque National Rainforest, Puerto Rico – Two Puerto

El Yunque National Rainforest, Puerto Rico – Two Puerto Rican Amazon parrots are safely caged at the Iguaca Aviary at the El Yunque National Rainforest, Puerto Rico. The parrots are an endangered species native to Puerto Rico. The birds have identifying tags or bottle caps to differentiate the gender or the specific behaviors. The aviary is a sanctuary that protects the species through captive breeding and egg fertility to release them and build up the population in the wild. (U.S. Army photo by Pfc. Christina Westfall)
