Scarlet macaws live in Southern Mexico, Central America, and in South America to the east of the Andes and as far south as Argentina.
These birds are known to move in mated pairs during the daytime, but sleep in large flocks at night. The females spend their time incubating the eggs, while males spend the day bringing back food for the mother, and eventually, the chicks.
Meta was born in 1992 and arrived at CPZ in 2009. She is know for her "don't mess with me" personality exhibiting a nice demeanor until zookeepers ask her to do something she doesn't want to.
