In the sky of Doha, next to Stadium 974

The bird was surprised to see the wild Bugbag Maguchikes, is it

I heard that these birds have become extinct and disappeared from existence. Oh my God, is it a fantasy of heroic celebrations that has not gone away? I will approach him and talk to him.

Sparrow: Hello bird, are you lost on the way?

Bugbag Machochiex: No I came out of the woods with a flock of birds185

Sparrow: Is she from your species?

Bagbagh Magushiix: Yes

Sparrow: Where are they?

The sparrow: They moved away from me a little, singing and rejoicing in Brazil's victory over Switzerland

Sparrow: Tell me the result186

Bgbbag Magoshieks: Brazil 1 and Switzerland 0

Al-Asfour: You have a history, remind me of it

Bugbag Magucheix: I am a Brazilian bird. It was Mark Graeg, a Dutch citizen living in Brazil, who first became interested in the subject of this bird's existence and description. Before long, the locals called it Ararinia azule, or little blue macaw—a very simple name, but a fitting one. The bird is blue with a hint of gray. It measures 22 inches [55 cm] long, including its 14-inch [35 cm] long tail, which also makes it the smallest blue macaw in Brazil 187

"Later, in the year 1819," recounts biologist Carlos Yamashte, the first expert on parrots, "scientists considered giving the bird the official name: Cyanopsitta spixii." Cyano means "blue" and psitta indicates to "parrot." But what about spixii? The biologist explains that it was added as a tribute to the German naturalist Johann Baptiste Schepkes. He was the first to study this species in its natural habitat, that is, in the sparsely wooded streams of northeastern Brazil. ‏ 188

Of course, once upon a time, flocks of Chibis magu never obscured the sky. Even in the days of Chibis, there were only 180 of them, but since then, their condition has been constantly deteriorating. There, by the mid-1970's, fewer than 60 macaws were still clinging to life. Bad though that was, the countdown had begun.190

What the settlers did not accomplish in three centuries, the trappers did in a few years—they nearly wiped out the entire Mago Spikes population. In 1984, only 4 of the 60 birds were still alive in the wild, but At the time, bird keepers were willing to pay "a very high price for a bird that might be the last of its kind"—up to $50,000 per bird. No wonder Zoologist reported in May 1989 that it had been a year since he had seen The researchers are the last of these birds on the loose. A few months later, it was reported that trappers had caught all that remained of these birds. The Spix Macaw, as sadly reported by Zoological World, had taken "the final blow."
