Another indigenous and endangered parrot that lives only on Dominica is the Amazona arausiaca or Jaco (St. Lucia s native parrot is the Jacquot). This bird is smaller, and a paler shade of green than the Sisserou. It has a distinctive red band around its neck, and lives at lower elevations in the rainforest.

Population: Approximately 73,000 people live on the 290-squaremile island. Most residents are of African ancestry, and about 3,000 descendants of native Carib Indians live in Carib Territory on the east coast.
