Florida has issued a new law about the green parrots here. They have made basically a "finders Keepers" law. where you catch it you can keep it. over the past time that the law has been out the number has had a downfall by about 75%! what do you all think about this?

What does it look like? Anyways, I think this could decrease the amount of birds found in the wild but increase the chances of animal abuse because people will more than likely just catch the bird for sake of catching it and they might develop the mentality that they don't have to take care of the bird because all they have to do is catch a new one. Also, methods of capturing the parrots could be harmful to the birds. I would be surprised if some good came out of this!

Wow! I wish there were wild parrots where I lived that sounds amazing! That's one of the few bad things about living in Canada.
