Mr Rajaram,
Please don't write blabla. You are an AVIVEKI by the definition given by you.
Please read again.
Parrots are classified under animal kingdom, but by habituate they are birds.
They are not WILD ANIMALS as stated by you.
Thank you Mr Rajaram. Don't justify yourself without reading fully and with
concentration. Gopalakrishnan

Dear Gopala
Why do you walk into a trap and get downtrodden?I know you are an aviveki
but not a fool out of anger and no Know-how, feigningintelligent. These words I
have to use because of your cheek in tongue wordsrepeatedly written without
silence. Rajaram never writes anything withoutstaunch authority; and without my
knowledge and analysis, nothing is printed asyou do copy and paste ARATH
SUBJECTS. Those written were from NATIONALGEOGRAPHY WHO CANNOT BE A FOOL LIKE
YOU. PARROTS ARE TOO MANY AND AS BIG AS ABIG CAT TOO. READ MORE; READ CLEAR;
READ WELL; AND THEN TREAT AS YOU LIKE IT;BUT NEVER BECOME NOSE DUSTED ALL THE
TIME. Thank you Gopala K Rajaram IRS 31525
ARTICLE CONTD:
Many parrots are omnivores.They eat mostly plants—fruit, seeds, nuts—but will
also consume insects and even meat. The SouthPacific’s rainbow-colored lories
and lorikeets, for example, feed almostexclusively on nectar, using tongues
shaped like paintbrushes. Even thesebirds, though, have been seen eating meat
at feeding stations in Australia. InNew Zealand, native kea birds were first
observed attacking, killing and eatingsheep in 1868. The mountain parrots were
persecuted as sheep-killers until1986, when the species was granted protected
status. (NATIONAL GEOGRAPHY)
4. Not all parrots are tropical.
Of the roughly 350 knownspecies of parrots, most live in the tropical and
subtropical regions ofAustralia, Asia, Africa and the Americas. But some
parrots fly off the beatenpath. The keas, for example, live in alpine regions
of New Zealand and nest inground burrows, while the endangered maroon-fronted
parrot dwells at 6,000 feetin Mexico’s Sierra Madre Oriental.
Parrots come in an incrediblerange of shapes and sizes. The smallest psittacine
species, the buff-facedpygmy, is nearly as small as a hummingbird. At about
three inches long, it’sthe average length of an adult human’s finger. The
world’s longest parrot isthe brilliant hyacinth macaw, which measures about 3
feet, 4 inches long fromtip to tail. But New Zealand’s flightless, nocturnal
kakapo wins the weightcompetition: A fully grown male tops out at nearly nine
pounds—the averageweight of an adult housecat.
Parrots have always beendifficult to study in the wild: Many live in remote,
inaccessible areas, likejungles filled with thick vegetation. Researchers have
attempted to studyparrots’ habits by attaching GPS trackers to them, but the
birds can skillfullyremove such unwanted accessories from their bodies. A 2015
study published inthe Auk, though, was a breakthrough in tracking methods for
elusivepsittacines. By encasing GPS trackers in bite-proof plastic, researchers
wereable to track a group of keas in New Zealand without any obvious
negativeeffects on the birds. {Smithsonian magazine)
Some parrot species prey on animals, especially invertebrate
larvae.Golden-winged parakeets prey on water snails, the New Zealand keacan,
though uncommonly,hunt adult sheep, and the Antipodes parakeet, another New
Zealand parrot,enters the burrows of nesting grey-backed storm petrels and
kills theincubating adults. Some cockatoos and the New Zealand kākā excavate
branchesand wood to feed on grubs; the bulk of the yellow-tailed black
cockatoo's dietis made up of insects. Some extinct parrots had carnivorous
diets.Pseudasturids were probably cuckoo- or puffbird-like insectivores,
whilemesselasturids were raptor-like carnivores.

Respected friends,
In a posting today regarding aviveki he has stated "adamantacity, without
proper reading, digesting and the analysis lead one toward being an AVIVEKI"
In this posting he has stated parrots are WILD animals. Surely a forward
without proper reading
A google search gives the following result
Yes, birds are classified as animals. They belong to the Kingdom Animalia, a
broad group that includes all living organisms that are not plants or fungi.
Birds are specifically part of the Class Aves within the Animal Kingdom.
Birds are only animals, not WILD ANIMALS. There is difference between animals
and wild animals. So Mr. Rajaram proves himself an AVIVEKI. BEFORE commenting
on others let him think about himself.

7 facts about parrots
- There are more than 350 parrot species. These include parakeets, macaws,
cockatiels, and cockatoos.
- The smallest parrot is the buff-faced pygmy parrot. It weighs around 10-15
grams and is around 8.5 centimetres long. The largest parrot is the hyacinth
macaw, which measures 90-100 centimetres.
- Parrots are long-lived. Kakapos can live for up to 95 years, scarlet
macaws live for 40-50 years, and African grey parrots can live up to 50 years
in the wild.
- Parrots are sentient beings who communicate with one another through their
tail feathers and voices. Some blush to show their emotions, and they can also
mimic other animals, including humans.
- Parrots are very clever. Researchers have shown that African greys have
the cognitive skills of a five-year-old child.
- African grey parrots fly several miles every day in the wild. When kept as
pets, these beautiful creatures are often cruelly confined in small, caged
spaces.
- Parrots kept as pets often behave abnormally. They may pluck out their own
feathers due to stress, boredom, and a lack of socialisation with other parrots.
Parrots are wild animals, not pets
Many parrot species — including the grey parrot, the Amazon parrot, and the
red-fronted macaw — are now endangered. In the wild, their habitats are
increasingly threatened by deforestation, much of it driven by the expansion of
large-scale agriculture and factory farming. As forests are cleared for animal
feed crops and grazing land, parrots lose their homes and food sources. This
sometimes forces them to forage in farmers’ fields, where they are often
persecuted as pests.
One of the greatest threats to parrots is the exotic pet trade. They are
poached because of their beautiful appearance and, in the case of some species,
like the African grey parrot, their ability to mimic human speech.
Once taken from the wild, pet parrots are kept in cruel conditions. Their
flight feathers are often chopped off to stop them from escaping. Many birds
don’t survive captivity, or even the journey. 66% of African grey parrots die
in transit.
