Unofrtunately there is a lot of issues with people and their pets. Many dont take the commitment seriously and many are just careless.
Parrots can live many many years, we need to set up provisions in case we are no longer able to care for them or die before our pets (as we would with a child)
There are also many many scammers (Give away a pair of Hyacynts, just pay 2000 for shipping) Please se nd money up front and by money gram!
Miami Metro Zoo had to open a day were you could donate any exotics you had, people being foreclosed simply left their pets behind on empty homes without food or water, until banks came to re-posess them (sometimes 2 or 3 months later)
We have a long way to go before we become responsible owners
