Spomínate si niekto na animák Rio? Príbeh modrého papagája Blu–a, posledného žijúceho samca Ary sivomodrej. Blu žije v malom mestečku so svojou paničkou Lindou, až dokým ich jedného dňa nenavštívi brazílsky ornitológ. Pozve ich na návštevu Ria, kde sa má Blu ‘zoznámiť‘ s poslednou samičkou svojho druhu, Perlou. Na výlete Blu čelí mnohým dobrodružstvám, musí utekať pred pašerákmi vzácnych papagájov, po rokoch sa naučí lietať a v neposlednom rade sa zaľúbi do Perly. Celý film je zakončený rozprávkovským happy-endom. Bluovi a Perle sa narodia tri modré papagájčatá a šťastná rodina si poletuje nad džungľou..Druh je zachránený

Horšie to ale dopadlo v skutočnosti. Odlesňovanie Brazílie a s ním súvisiaca strata prirodzeného životného prostredia, pytliactvo&čierny trh... Tento rok sme vyhlásili aru sivomodrú za v prírode vyhynutú.

Týmto chcem len poukázať na tento paradox – spravíme film o záchrane druhu vtáčikov a v skutočnosti robíme všetko preto, aby sa zachrániť nedal.
„Ľudské aktivity sú fundamentálnou hnacou silou miznutia druhov.“ Stuart Butchart.

Does anyone remember the Rio movie? The story of the blue parrot Blu, the last surviving male of Spix’s macaw. Blu lives in a small town with his owner Linda, until one day a Brazilian ornithologist pays them a visit. He invites both of them to Rio, where Blu is supposed to meet the last female Spix’s Macaw called Jewel. Blu and Jewel face many adventures together, they have to escape from the smugglers that want to sell them, Blu finally learns to fly and falls in love with Jewel. The whole whole movie, of course, has a great happy ending. Blu and jewel have three blue baby birds and raise them in a jungle.. The specie is saved

What happened in reality is, however, far worse. Deforestration and habitat loss, poaching and black market... This year we listed the Spix’s macaw as extinct in the wild..

By this post I just want to tackle this paradox – we make a movie about rescuing a bird specie, yet in real world we work our asses to make the rescue impossible.
"Human activities are the ultimate drivers of virtually all recent extinctions," Stuart Butchart.

oh that's sad news.. Yes I recently watched that film with my son..! If it had had a more realistic ending it might have left more impressions on the future generations.. Gives kind of a false impression that we are doing great for nature :( Thanks for sharing
