If you have come across a lost pet, or if you have observed someone being abusive towards their parrots, you may be in a situation where you don’t know exactly what to do
In all such cases, I suggest you contact your local bird rescue centers or shelters for guidance.
These rescue centers do provide protection to homeless, orphaned, or abused animals.
They also sell pets which you can adopt at a reasonable price from these rescue centers
Normally, animal rescue centers limit their services for certain kinds of animals living within a single region, typically for abused cats and dogs.
Otherwise, exclusive shelters are built only for raptors.
I have been writing a series on rescue homes for parrots.
This way, I can easily narrow down bird shelters that are working within certain regions and support exotic pet birds.
