NEW DELHI/BRASILIA (Reuters) -This is a story about a bird and a family. But this is no ordinary bird, and this is no ordinary family.
Spix's macaw, a vivid-blue parrot with elaborate mating rituals, was declared extinct in the wild in 2019. A captive-breeding program has since seen some of the birds reintroduced to their native habitat in Brazil.
