World Parrot Refuge Tour - part 3/3

A tour of the World Parrot Refuge.

In this portion, you can see the aviaries which are contained in the left and right "arms" of the refuge. There are individual flocks of Cockatoos, Macaws, Amazons and African Grey parrots, as well as Parrotlets. We also get to go inside of the African Grey enclosure! Peaches, the cockatoo at the beginning of this portion, is having her weekly visit with her friend. Wendy also points out a couple Scarlet Macaws, who were rescued from a drug house.

WPR is located in Coombs, British Columbia. It has 23,000 sq. feet of indoor heated free-flight aviaries as well as outdoor aviaries and is located on over 20 acres of land.

It currently has over 800 parrots from 50 species and provides a "home for life": the birds are not adopted out. The refuge provides a permanent, loving home to these often abused, neglected and unwanted parrots. It is also a home for loved parrots who are willed or given to the refuge due to the loss or infirmity of their owners.
