I have already told you about my visit to the Birds Market in a city nearby where i live. Today i have been there again to buy some new toys and other stuff for DJ. Before buying anything, i took a walk with DJ on my shoulder, and what i saw has really pissed me off!!!
I saw one of the bird sellers spraying water directly on a parrot's peak, the poor parrot parrot was fighting to breath and trying to fly away. His whole face was soaking wet and looked as if he will die anytime soon. I stopped and tried to film the incident and the seller immediately stopped and asked me why i want to film this? I told him i will take this video to the Animal Rights Society and will get him arrested for this. So he panicked and throw the helpless bird on top of a cage.
I walked away but kept my eyes on him, and when he thought i left, he lifted the parrot from one leg and and started swinging the bird up and down. I went back again and asked him why is he doing this to the bird, he answered: I am taming the parrot!!!
The Parrot was an Indian Ring Neck Parakeet, just like the one i have at home but a lot younger. He is also wild, been caught somewhere here in Dubai. So i could not watch anymore as i have seen more than one thing at the same time. I will never go there again, as i was going to punch the guy right on the face.
I know this is sad and the government is doing nothing about it, i am really helpless and extremely sad. I wanted to share this with you as you know you will understand my frustration.
