Heroic actions of several wildlife organizations and the generosity of WPT supporters has helped a group of African Grey parrots to get a second chance. But the work is nowhere near done. Many of the parrots still require ongoing help.

Their arrival placed a hefty burden on the centre's already overworked staff, who turned to the World Parrot Trust for help.
