Volunteer Abroad Bird Sanctuary Parrot

Volunteer Programs with Parrots

Volunteer with parrots and protect these endangered colorful birds...

Volunteer with parrots and protect these endangered colorful birds. Over 350 different birds belong to the parrot family, including Macaws, Amazons, Cockatoos, and Lovebirds. Although their appearance differs greatly, they all have the curved beak and 4 toed feet in common.

Volunteers concerned about the survival rates of parrots can make a difference in Costa Rica or Ecuador. Join an animal shelter that cares for rescued birds or a wildlife conservation program that does what they can to protect these endangered animals from threats such as habitat loss, climate change, and poaching. Admire these magnificent creatures in their breathtaking natural environment.
