lovethatgrey Posted March 27, 2011 Share Posted March 27, 2011 I choked up when I saw this video. It makes me wonder whether I am indeed part of the problem. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Butttaxi Posted March 28, 2011 Share Posted March 28, 2011 I watched this a while ago and it is very sad. It also made me sad that I was selfish about wanting to own a grey or any parrot for that matter. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
MarcusCAG Posted March 29, 2011 Share Posted March 29, 2011 I'm sorry, when the net went down I couldn't watch anymore, I've read about trapping elsewhere and it's enough for me, I don't think I could take actually viewing it... The ones in the wild deserve to stay wild, and there are more than enough parrots waiting in rescues to find loving forever homes that people might be able to adopt and care for instead. There's no need for this violence, it's just GREED. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Ray P Posted March 29, 2011 Share Posted March 29, 2011 I could not watch eather. A year ago I saw a picture of a pile of about 150 dead greys that did not make it and it made me sick. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Elvenking Posted March 31, 2011 Share Posted March 31, 2011 (edited) Yeah...I would have to say that if you love these birds as much as this community does....that video is incredibly hard to watch. I saw the entire 3 part series on youtube and I was just crushed. It does bring you into a bout with your own concience and whether its right to keep these beautiful birds as pets. However, when i come home and see how glad Issac is that I am home, and how he loves all the attention and getting involved in what I am doing all the time, I know at least this much. There is one grey in the world that is very happy, and not going to end up like the birds in that video. And I am not opposed to shooting bird poachers. I wish there wre more videos of them just living their lives together. The scenes of large flocks of CAG's are beautiful. Makes me wish I could go to their natural habitat and watch them forage and fly in flocks. Edited March 31, 2011 by Elvenking Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Ray P Posted March 31, 2011 Share Posted March 31, 2011 Knowing how we feel about our greys and seeing that vedio is heartbraking. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
