A New Species Of Finch
Hello Finch Lovers,
Reading different articles, I came upon an interesting write up about a new species of Finch which Mother Nature has decided to grace our world with, but don't buy a new flight cage yet folks .
Enjoy the following article:

Re: A New Species Of Finch
So do I. When do you think they will hit the market and how much do you think they will cost?

Re: A New Species Of Finch
Never - Galapagos finches are protected.
They also are not closely related to any finches commonly raised in captivity, being an unrelated bird group which has only developed a similar appearance through convergent evolution. They are called finches because they look like them, but aren't actually finches.

Hi Fraser and Nick,
I'm afraid they will probably never 'hit the market' , lol.
This birdies on the Galapagos, are protected to the best of my knowledge.
It's just interesting to see how Nature finds a way to create a new species.

Darn. We can at least hope and pray that they will hit the market.

Re: A New Species Of Finch
Nobody is going to smuggle out such plain birds. There really is no profitable market, as there is for prettier animals. This is to the benefit of the Galapagos finches, though.Fraza wrote: Yep I know they will be protected for a long while however it won’t be long before someone manages to sneak one there’s always cruminals out there willing to do such things for money
