The Amazon Rainforest

Our Alebrije creatures come from the Amazon Rainforest ecosystem. Some interesting facts about our ecosystem are that it spans 8 countries, and is home to 47 million people. The Macaw is the largest bird in the parrot family, ranging around a little above 3 feet on average.  Here we demonstrate two different kinds of parrots communicating in the Amazon. Maybe they are singing the song? Maybe they are sharing a few stories?
