~~~~~~~~~~~~~PARROT REFUGE IN CRISIS~~~~~~~~~~~~~
The World Parrot Refuge in Coombs is in crisis. Funding cuts that have affected many community based groups have forced the refuge to cut back staff and the fate of the birds is in question. With no funding in place, and no other refuge to take on so many birds, the outlook is bleak. We need your help! Please consider bidding on one of our auctions, or donate or sponsor a bird through our secure website worldparrotrefuge.org. A big thank-you to all who can help!
