Ceibal has more species of cannaries than Tikal National Park.
In total, studies have counted 92 different avian species in Ceibal. Despite its small size, Ceibal plays an essential role in conserving several avian species. Recent studies on the migration patterns of the mealy Amazon parrot (Amazona farinosa) have demonstrated that the survival of the species is directly linked to the existence of the small protected areas in Southern Petén.
