The bird species reaches a body length of 35 to 38 cm. Its natural range is in tropical rainforests of Brazil, Peru, Guiana States, Trinidad, Venezuela and Colombia. Yellow-fronted Amazons are distinguished by their loud voice and good imitation of ambient sounds. The Yellow-fronted Amazon was first scientifi- cally described in 1788 by the German physician and naturalist Johann Friedrich Gmelin under the name „Psittacus ochrocephalus“. The Yellow-fronted Amazon presented here is a particularly beautiful specimen thanks to its yellow crest and is protected by its antique glass dome. CHF 1 000 / 2 000 (€ 970 / 1 940) | 43
