Psittacidae

The Family Psittacidae, commonly known as parrots, includes more than 380 species of birds. They are found in tropical and subtropical regions worldwide and are known for their brightly colored feathers, strong beaks, and ability to mimic sounds. Parrots are highly intelligent and social animals, with some species capable of complex problem-solving and communication. They primarily feed on fruits, seeds, and nuts and play an important role in seed dispersal in their respective ecosystems. Unfortunately, many parrot species are threatened by habitat loss, illegal pet trade, and hunting. Protecting and conserving these fascinating birds and their habitats is important to ensure their survival for future generations.
