Harpy Eagle - Alejandro - World Bird Sanctuary

Alejandro was transferred to World Bird Sanctuary from the Fort Worth Zoo under the direction of the San Diego Zoo on October 14, 2020. They were attempting to use him in their Harpy Species Survival Plan, but unfortunately Alejandro is a confirmed bachelor because he had no desire to breed with the two females he was paired with. This is most likely due to him being imprinted on humans as a chick. When birds are imprinted on humans, they do not see themselves as birds, and thus do not usually recognize birds of their same species as potential mates. Since conservation of his species didn't work out for him, Alejandro was transferred to WBS to be trained to become a rock star educational ambassador for his species!
