Người ta ước tính rằng chỉ có 1 trong 6 con vẹt bị bắt trong tự nhiên để buôn bán thú cưng sống sót sau quá trình này. Điều này cũng đúng với các loài khác. Điều đó đang được nói, một số người làm việc để nhân giống và bảo vệ các loài chim có nguy cơ tuyệt chủng. Chúng thả chúng trở lại tự nhiên để khôi phục quần thể bị tàn phá hoặc giúp đưa chúng đến môi trường mới, nơi chúng có thể phát triển mạnh.

Hahn’s Macaw, Besides Being Beautiful It’s Considered One Of The Friendliest Pet Birds. There are many reasons to own macaws – one of the best is how beautiful these birds are. However, lots of pet owners steer clear of macaws due to their size. The good news is that Hahn’s macaws tend to be a lot smaller than other options. They are only about 12 to 14 inches long yet manage to pack a ton of persona into one pint-sized package. As intelligent, playful birds, Hahn’s macaws are gentle when they are socialized and handled regularly. The more time you can spend interacting with your pet, the better – if they don’t get enough social activity, they can easily become depressed. They can also be incredibly noisy.

Parakeet: Many people know them as “parakeets,” but their real name is “budgerigar”. The word “budgerigar” comes from the aboriginal people of Australia, the budgie homeland. We like to use “budgie” as a shortened version of “budgerigar”. In English, “budgerigar” or “budgie” is a more accurate name, because “parakeet” actually refers to a large group of small to medium sized parrot species. Parakeets are flock creatures, and part of their care is providing social activities. If their human family members are home a lot, able to hand tame the bird, and give it lots of interaction time, then they will become its flock. Parakeets can form strong bonds to their human flock mates. If they will be gone a lot, then the parakeet should be kept in an environment with other parakeets. The human/bird bond may not be as strong but it is healthier for the birds overall. Without a companion the bird may suffer from depression and other mental health problems.

Australian King Parrot: The Australian king parrot is kept as a pet because of its look, not because it is affectionate or likes handling. Males are bright red with green wings and black tails. Females look quite different. They are green with a red belly and legs. One problem with keeping them as pets is that they need a large space in which to roam around. They aren’t happy with small cages and need handlers that know how to give them the space they need.

Black Palm Cockatoo: The black palm cockatoo is one of the largest species of cockatoo. They are dark grey to black with maroon cheeks. They also have a feathered crest on their heads that looks like palm fronds, giving them their name. Those that are kept as pets are described as very needy. They are social and intelligent and will grow depressed and destructive if they don’t receive the care and interaction they need. Although they were once common, they are now considered vulnerable in the wild. Habitat destruction and capture for the pet trade have led to a sharp decrease in their numbers.

Ring-Necked Doves: No, they’re not common pet birds—in fact, only 3 percent of bird parents keep doves. But they should be more popular. Docile and easygoing, doves love hanging out with their humans once they get used to them. Although some species are not well suited as pets, requiring advanced management with large and precise environments, other dove species are very well suited as companion pets. Ring-necked doves (Streptopelia risoria) and diamond doves (Geopelia cuneata) are two of the most widely kept species of doves. They’re perfect for people who want to keep birds as pets but don’t want to (or can’t) invest the time it takes to care for a parrot. Housing: They need a wide cage with several perches, bells and swings.
