This species dwells primarily in jungles and deciduous forests but can also do well in semiarid regions and even suburban zones. In several places, pet birds released or escaped into the wild have established feral breeding populations. The movie “The Wild Parrots of Telegraph Hill” popularized a group of feral cherry-headed conures in San Francisco. Other feral populations exist in other parts of California, Texas, and Florida. The cherry-headed conure is a very popular pet; in 1994, it was classified as “near-threatened” for extinction by the International Union for Conservation of Nature. This status is due to its habitat loss and trapping by the illegal pet trade.
