The purple macaw is a large parrot with bright violet plumage. It lives in the tropical forests of South America and uses its strong beak to feed on hard fruits.
The purple macaw differs from other large parrots with its rich violet feather color. It helps the forest by spreading plant seeds after eating the fruits.
Legendary longevity: over 100 years. Galapagos tortoises, Greenland sharks, ocean quahogs celebrate with family once every 4 years
