Endangered Species: This striking bird of the Amazon has been desecrated by mankind for our own enjoyment. One man, Charles Munn, braving constant death threats, has taken on the government and poachers in his effort to save the Macaw and the forest of Peru. In the United States, Dr. Lorin Linder and others care for these birds abandoned by careless owners while the U.S. Fish and Wildlife Service fights a losing battle against the rampant smuggling of these endangered animals.

Training and Behavioral Guidance:

Pet parrots generally present challenges, such as excessive chewing - especially at certain stages in their life. They do discover their beaks as method of "disciplining us" once they are out of the "baby stage" and they can generally be somewhat naughty, and it really is important to learn to understand them and to guide their behavior before an undesirable behavior has been established. Undisciplined parrots will chew on electric wiring potentially causing house fires. They regard anything in your home as a "toy" that can be explored and chewed on; destroying items that you may hold dear or are simply valuable. Even a young bird that has not been neglected and abused requires proper guidance; this becomes even more challenging when it involves a rescued bird that may require rehabilitation.

German Aras: Freileben, Verhalten, Pflege, Arten (Gebundene Ausgabe)

Aras, die grössten und wohl spektakulärsten aller Papageien, werden in ihrer Heimat schon seit Urzeiten verehrt. Vor allem wegen ihres auffallenden Gefieders und ihrer auf Menschen faszinierend wirkenden Kommunikations- und Lernfähigkeit sind sie sehr früh zu Gefährten - und Gefangenen - des Menschen geworden. Inzwischen erkennt man, wie bedroht die Aras durch die Umweltzerstörung sind und erforscht intensiv ihre natürliche Lebensweise und ihr Sozialverhalten. Dieses Wissen wird immer mehr zur Richtlinie für die in Menschenobhut gehaltenen Aras. So können Bedingungen geschaffen werden, die ihnen ein weitgehend naturgemässes Leben ermöglichen. Dieses Buch enthält eine Fülle wichtiger und aktuellster Informationen zu Verhalten, Zucht und Pflege dieser grossen Papageien - zusammengetragen vom Experten. Ausserdem entführen Sie atemberaubende Fotos in die natürlichen Lebensräume der Aras und zeigen die Vögel in ihrer leuchtenden Farbenpracht.
