Black-fronted Piping Guan

The Black-fronted Piping Guan is a large bird found in forest habitat in parts of South America along the Atlantic coast.

Black-fronted Piping Guans have a mostly black plumage with a white wing patch and bushy white crest. They also have a distinct red throat wattle.

These birds are unfortunately endangered, due to habitat loss and other factors. They breed in captivity and conservationists are working on releasing birds from a captive breeding program.
