BTW, are the macaws interbreed with different species to produce hybrids? Does interbreeding ever occur in the wild?

As far as I know, interbreeding does not occur in the wild. The individual species have enough potential mates inside their species. It is only in captivity does this occur...probably because of the instinct to preserve the species--even if that means diluting it.
