We the undersigned are asking that you ban future auctions of exotic birds and animals. As I am sure you are aware of, exotic birds and animals are being released into the wild every day by uneducated owners who are no longer able to care for these animals. If we allow auctions like this to go on, we are only contributing to the problem. Parrots, like any other exotic animal, should not be auctioned off to the highest bidder. Please help us to stop this outragous act by banning auctions of this kind. Thank you for your time.
We signed the "Petition to ban the auction of exotic birds and animals" petition!

I am a great fan of parrots and have had the pleasure of being owned by an Umbrella Cockatoo and now by a Timneh African Gray. I have adopted them both when their former families wanted them to have a new home, so I am NOT part of the problem. It is important in our world to provide proper habitat for these beautiful creatures in the wild. There are no native parrots in my neighborhood, but I have an official "Habitat" for the birds that we DO have, with sacrificial plants for the butterflies, too. |

Parrots and exotic birds need to be kept in their natural habitat to the greatest extent possible. There are plenty of breeders of birds to go around as pets. Please help protect these precious animals!

Exotic birds should remain exotic that is " OUTSIDE" of our day to day existence. Exotic birds need their true habitat,skies and liberty. Auctions of these peaceful, inspiring, rare and beautiful species are inhumane to the utmost. The resulting life in a cage is ridiculous and their release in the middle of the city is irresponsible. Please ban these auctions! |

Parrots should not be auctioned off to the highest bidder! These people are usually uneducated as to a parrots needs and the birds end up being neglected and abused. Help stop the abuse and neglect by not allowing auctions.

I have seen the damage caused by uneducated and uniformed bird owners. These are not dogs and cats, domesticated for centuries. They are wild and exotic animals that have special dietary, intellectual and physical needs!

The widespread abuse and torture of exotics, especially during the act of smuggling them into 'intolerant' jurisdictions, is abhorrent to any human of good and kind nature. I encourage any who use the voice of this petition to heed the message here. End the auction of -all- living creatures. Thank you.

Auctions for living and intelligent beings is cruel and deplorable.
