The yellow-billed parrot which is only found in Jamaica is now protected under the United States Endangered Species Act.
On March 11, this was announced by the US Fish and Wildlife Service, which stated that ongoing deforestation and fragmentation, including loss of suitable nesting trees, has led to a decline in the yellow-billed parrot’s range and population.
The bird is one of only two Amazonia species that is endemic to Jamaica and is found in forested limestone hills and the John Crow Mountains, Cockpit Country and Mount Diablo.
