var arrayFacts = [ "Fist Fight:

A macaw can easily crush a human knuckle with its incredibly powerful beak.

They use their large, curved beak to crush Brazilian nuts and seeds, which make up their primary diet.", "Fantastic Feet:

Macaws have powerful feet, which they use to grip and grasp, much like humans use their hands.", "Who Needs Teeth?

Not only do macaws have powerful beaks that can crack open nut shells, they also have tongues that break up their food once it is placed in their mouths.

The macaw's tongue is covered in scales, is incredibly stiff and dry, and has a bone in the center to reinforce its strength.", "Bird's Eye!

Macaws are born with grey or black eyes, which change to brown or yellow as the macaw matures.", "Macaw Conversational Skills:

Macaws are known for their painfully loud screeching cries. They make these sounds to mark their territory and tell other macaws where they are located.

Macaws can learn other calls and even words, repeating the sounds to themselves until they get it right.", "Helpless and Hungry:

Macaw chicks are completely helpless when they hatch and both parents are responsible for feeding the babies and keeping them safe. ", "Monogamous Macaws:

Macaws typically stay with the same mate for their entire lives. Mating couples spend entire days preening one another. They also share a place to sleep and food!", "Macaws are Excellent Parents:

Macaws usually breed once a year. They lay their eggs on side of a cliff or in a tree hollow. Macaw mothers sit on the eggs until the babies hatch while the fathers gather food.", "Macaws Endangered:

The Macaw faces many challenges in the wild, including trappers and dangers to their rain forest habitat, such as land development and urban sprawl.", "Help from the Humans:

While Macaws are currently endangered, some landowners in their habitat are taking action to protect them.

These remarkable people have often stopped trappers from entering their properties in an effort to increase their numbers.", "Safety in Numbers:

Large birds and snakes eat Macaws. To protect themselves, Macaws live in flocks of 10-30 or in pairs. ", "A Day in the Life:

The Macaw is an early riser, awake by dawn most of the time. The first thing they do is preen their feathers and then they call out to each other, probably to let other Macaws know where they are perched.

The Macaws fly in a flock to a large tree with fruit. Here they feed for several hours, preen, and chatter to one another. Around dusk, they return to their nests to sleep.", "Unlike Humans...

Though they may fight over a place to rest, Macaws rarely (if ever) become physically violent with one another.", "And For Dessert?

The Macaws diet mainly consists of nuts, flowers, leaves, fruits, plants, and seeds; however, they sometimes indulge in snails and small insects as well. ", "Not Such Finicky Eaters:

Some Macaws live near cattle, which feast upon palm nuts. These birds patiently wait for the palm nuts to pass through the cow's body as waste.

After the nuts have traveled through the cows' digestive system, they are intact, but missing their hard coating.

The Macaws can now eat the palm nuts because they do not have to crack them open. ", "Eat Dirt!

The Macaw eats the clay soil along the banks of rivers and the edges of cliffs. Scientists, though they are not certain, believe the macaws eat clay to filter out the toxic chemicals in their food.", ];
