National Bird Day is an annual event held on January 5 each year to speak out for our bird friends.
Each year millions of exotic animals are captured from the wild or produced in captivity for commercial profit or human amusement, only to languish in conditions that fail to meet the instinctive, behavioral, and physical needs of these wild animals. Unfortunately, many birds spend their days isolated and confined to their cages.
In addition, breeding facilities that supply birds to pet stores often resemble little more than warehouses in which birds are held in barren cages for mass production. Pet stores across the United States continue to treat birds like merchandise peddling them into the pet trade.
