"Wild Parrot Feeders" gather petition to block parrot feeding ban

An online Petition begun by the group calling themselves "The Wild Parrot Feeders" has been sent to supervisors & Mayor in a last ditch effort to block the ban against feeding wild parrots in San Francisco.

Dispite efforts by bird lovers to keep the parrots from becoming too tame, too dependent on handouts and foraging less, the group continues to fight for their right to feed the birds to "enjoy the interaction".

It is this groups insistance on continuing to feed the birds daily dispite the inherent dangers that made the proposed ban necessary to begin with, but they refuse to believe the feedings are in any way harmful.

For more information on the detrimental effects of feeding wildlife, please read the PAWS article at the link below

This is somewhat incoherent. Is English your native language? Perhaps you could just write in your native tongue and someone will translate. The topic seems interesting; I'm just not sure what it is. Thank you.

El grupo llamada “The wild parrot feeders” han enviado una suplica al bordo de supervisoras de San Francisco para parar la prohibicion contra la alimentacion diarios de los loros salvajes en San Francisco.

El grupo que insiste en los alimentaciones diarios fue la causa del prohibicion.
