Dear Parrots magazine,
Payback time?
I read with great interest and also sadness about the conflict between the Lear’s Macaws and us humans in the January issue. As the cover said it is clearly an ironic situation because it is only because the farmers have destroyed a lot of the habitat the Lear’s live in and then wonder why they come back to feed on their crops.
It could be called payback time and I think it is really sad that a lot of these Macaws are probably going to be shot by the farmers for apparently destroying their corn crop. Perhaps one day mankind will realise how our planet is being systematically destroyed by human activity and unless we find solutions for these problems, this conflict for one will only continue.
