Threat Level: Near Threatened

With their soft pink feathers and long, graceful legs, the Chilean Flamingo is one of nature’s wonders. They spend their days wading through shimmering lagoons, heads upside down as they filter tiny creatures from the water with their unique beaks. But their peaceful world is under threat. Habitat loss, hunting and egg collecting are putting these beautiful birds at risk—and with only one egg laid each year, every chick counts. Native to parts of South America like Chile, Peru and Argentina, they’re slowly disappearing from the wild.
