San Francisco Zoo and Gardens will be home to three parrot chicks rescued from smuggling.
Three Amazon parrot chicks that were recently confiscated from smugglers are being cared for at the San Francisco Zoo and Gardens, zoo officials said Monday, June 13, 2022. Three parrot chicks that were being smuggled into the U.S. were rescued and have a new home at the San Francisco Zoo and Gardens.
"Not all trafficked animals will be able to live a quality life, and we hope these three can serve as ambassadors in our South American Tropical Rainforest and Aviary to tell the story of illicit wildlife trafficking and its negative consequences on wild populations." Parrot chicks taken from their nests as hatchlings are often shipped in boxes without proper ventilation or water for the illegal pet trade.
