🦜Blue-and-yellow Macaw

Ara ararauna (Linnaeus, 1758)

청금강앵무(Blue-and-yellow macaw, 학명: Ara ararauna)는 중앙아메리카와 남아메리카의 열대 지역 및 카리브 제도의 트리니다드섬에 서식하는 대형 앵무새이다. 몸 윗부분은 주로 파란색, 배 부분은 밝은 노란색 또는 주황색을 띠며, 머리 꼭대기에는 녹색 색조가 점차적으로 나타나는 금강앵무의 일종이다. 숲(특히 바르제아 숲뿐만 아니라 범람하지 않는 숲), 삼림 지대, 사바나 등지에 서식한다. 화려한 색상, 말하는 능력, 시장에서의 용이한 입수 가능성, 사람과의 긴밀한 유대감 때문에 조류 사육에서 인기가 높다. 전 세계적으로 반려동물로 가장 흔하게 길러지는 금강앵무 종이며, 대형 금강앵무 중 가격이 가장 저렴하다. 2025년 기준, 전 세계적으로 100만 마리의 청금강앵무가 사육되고 있으며, 이는 사육되는 대형 앵무새 중 가장 높은 개체 수 중 하나이다.
