The rufous-fronted parakeet is an endemic and threatened species from Central cordillera in Colombia. With support from Preventing Extinction Fund, Coporación GEOBIOTA will purchase 150 ha of forest habitat nearby the Los Nevados National Park to protect the rufous-fronted parakeet and other highland species of biological importance and create a biological station for research.
