Golden-collared Macaw
The Golden-collared Macaw (Primolius auricollis) is a medium-sized parrot whose sexes are hard to tell apart. Unlike large macaws, it is not highly destructive or noisy, and importantly it is good at learning to talk, making it one of the better macaws to keep as a pet.
Jardine Parrot
The Jardine Parrot (Poicephalus gulielmi) currently has three subspecies. Its body is almost entirely green and is the second-largest parrot species after the Cape Parrot. Its distribution is scattered and not concentrated, mainly across central Africa and parts of West Africa.
Red-shouldered Macaw
Macaws are never small in size, and even as the smallest macaw, the Red-shouldered Macaw exceeds 30 cm in body length. Because it can talk, the Red-shouldered Macaw has found its way into many homes. With proper care it lives about 20 years, though records show the oldest individuals can reach 80 years of age.
Blue-headed Macaw
The Blue-headed Macaw is the most expensive of the small parrots, mainly because of its scarcity, low popularity, and obscurity—truly a case of rarity commanding a premium. In captivity it is easily tamed and quite robust, adapts well, and like other macaws loves to chew and is destructive, so regular bathing keeps its plumage healthy. It suits a fairly roomy, flight-capable aviary.
Blue-and-gold Macaw
The Blue-and-gold Macaw (Ara ararauna), also called the Blue-and-gold Macaw, is attractive in both color and size. Native to the tropical Americas, it is the most commonly seen macaw on the market and is gentle and affectionate toward people.

Bedding Options for Hamsters

Arowana Lifespan and Why They Die Early
Wild arowana can live 30 years or more, but captive fish often die young at just 6 to 7 years because of weak breeding, over-emphasis on looks, poor water quality, and stress. Stable, well-filtered, slightly acidic water and a natural approach help them live longer.
