Parrot: The Intelligent Communicator
Parrots, known for their vibrant colors and sharp intelligence, are among the most popular birds in zoos. Native to tropical and subtropical regions, parrots are highly social animals, often living in large flocks. They are skilled mimics, capable of replicating human speech and other sounds with incredible accuracy.
In zoos, parrots are housed in aviaries with plenty of space to climb, fly, and interact. Their diets include fruits, nuts, and seeds, tailored to meet the nutritional needs of each species. Parrots not only entertain visitors with their antics but also serve as ambassadors for the conservation of tropical ecosystems.
