An energetic, mischievous Goffin’s, Bizzy knows how to engage the perfect level of ridiculous debauchery, brightening even the most humdrum sanctuary tasks. Goffin’s cockatoos are the anarchists of the captive parrot world. Each bird has their own unique spin on how best to playfully antagonize their human and avian flockmates, and Bizzy is no exception – she knows exactly who to target, who will put up with her antics, and who will limit the shenanigans by enforcing the sanctuary rules. Whether she is relentlessly divebombing her favorite victims or sweetly stealing kisses from those she adores, Bizzy is a treasured member of the MAARS flock. #MAARS

Parrots rely on healthy, intact habitats to survive. They depend on native food sources, safe nesting sites and balanced ecosystems. When their numbers decline, it’s often a warning sign that something in that habitat is under pressure. When parrots thrive, forests and all who depend on them thrive too.When we protect habitat for parrots, we’re protecting entire ecosystems, including the plants, insects, reptiles, amphibians, birds and mammals that share those same environments.

Parrots rely on healthy, intact habitats to survive. They depend on native food sources, safe nesting sites and balanced ecosystems. When their numbers decline, it’s often a warning sign that something in that habitat is under pressure.

Protecting parrots strengthens biodiversity and supports the natural systems we all rely on, from the smallest insect to the largest mammal.

This World Wildlife Day, we’re proud to work alongside partners around the world to safeguard parrots and the habitats they call home.

Because when parrots thrive, forests and all who depend on them thrive too.
