Comments

ñandu (Rhea Americana) to największy ptak Ameryki Południowej, podobny, ale mniejszy od strusia australijskiego. Od 1978 roku polowanie na ten gatunek jest zabronione, a program reprodukcji jest bardzo udany, aby zwiększyć liczbę zwierząt, a także do produkcji mięsa (o bardzo niskiej zawartości tłuszczu i cholesterolu), piór, a nawet soczewki i rogówki krystalicznej do zastosowań medycznych.

Moneta ta jest częścią serii poświęconej rodzimej faunie.

This is an automatic translation. The original text is:

The ñandu (Rhea Americana) is the biggest bird of South America, similar but smaller to australian ostrich. From 1978 is prohibited to hunt this species, and there is a very successful reproduction program to increase number of animals, and also to production of meat (very low on fat and cholesterol), feathers, and even crystralline lens and cornea for medical uses.

This coin is part of the series dedicated to native fauna.
