🦩American Flamingo
Der Kuba-Flamingo (Phoenicopterus ruber) oder Roter Flamingo ist eine Art der Flamingos (Phoenicopteridae). Sein Lebensraum sind Lagunen und Salzseen in Mittel- und Südamerika. Wie alle Flamingos ist der Kubaflamingo seriell monogam, d. h., er geht mit jeder Fortpflanzungsperiode eine neue Paarbeziehung ein. Er ist ein Koloniebrüter, seine Nahrung besteht hauptsächlich aus Kleinkrebsen. Die IUCN gibt den Gesamtbestand des Kubaflamingos mit 260.000 bis 330.000 Tieren an. Die Art gilt damit als „nicht gefährdet“.
