| dc.description.abstract | There is a lack of quantitative information available about the effects of environmental
enrichment on avian orders, compared with the amount of similar research carried out on
mammals. This is particularly surprising where members of the parrot family (Psittacidae) are
concerned, as enrichment is widely regarded as essential for the welfare of captive primates, and
there are well-documented parallels between the abilities and needs of primates and psittacines. | |
