Parrots of Africa

Africa is a large continent containing relatively few parrot species. Nevertheless, especially African parrots belong to the most popular pet animals of the world. At the same time, little is known about their natural behavior and ecology, and some species already give some serious reason for concern in terms of conservation. Parrots of Africa will provide enormous help to those engaged in the biology, conservation and aviculture of these unique birds. It is the most comprehensive handbook of its kind and covers the habitats of African parrots, their non-breeding and breeding biology, their feeding ecology as well as important conservation issues. Aviculturists will find the compact husbandry manual for African parrots of great value.Luft, Stefan is the author of 'Parrots of Africa', published 2007 under ISBN 9783833484452 and ISBN 3833484454.
