Red-billed curassow  (Crax blumenbachii)

This Brazilian endemic was formerly widespread across the east of the country, but has now vanished from most of this range, being largely confined to four or five reserves, with strongholds in Sooretama Biological Reserve and the adjacent Linhares Forest Reserve in Espírito Santo (4).

A largely terrestrial bird found in tall, humid forest with rich undergrowth, although also frequenting more open spaces such as river banks, small floodplains and forest tracks (2) (4). This lowland species occurs up to around 500 m above sea level (2).
