Step 1 : Introduction to the question "1. The Golden Parakeet, an extraordinarily beautiful little bird whose very existence is now threatened, is found in which area of South America?"
...1. Rocky Mountains area of Colorado 2. Amazon basin of Brazil 3. Hudson Fjord area of New York Bay 4. South-east Mexico Sadly this lovely bird's very existence is threatened by deforestation, flooding and the illegal trade of bird smuggling in the Amazon. It's heartbreaking. The Golden Parakeet's colouring is mostly all a lovely shade of yellow, but with green-tipped wings. Its diet consists of fruit, wild maize, buds, seeds and flowers. A sociable little creature, the birds all live, sleep, feed and sleep together. Amazingly so, after their eggs are hatched, the parents are helped by other birds in the group in the rearing of the small chicks. How cute is that? They're little avian hippies.
