The Salvin's Curassow (Mitu salvini) is a species of bird in the Cracidae family. It is found in Colombia, Ecuador, and Peru. Its natural habitat is subtropical or tropical moist lowland forests. A prized game bird, the Salvin's curassow is declining throughout the human-inhabited areas of its range, which also includes Colombia and eastern Ecuador. But the turkey-size bird seems to be doing well in areas without hunting pressures. BirdLife International 2004. Mitu salvini. 2006 IUCN Red List of Threatened Species. Downloaded on 10 July 2007.
