It is estimated that more than half of the psittacine cases presented to clinicians are the result of behavioral problems-problems inherent to captivity.Bringing together a host of international experts on avian behavior, Manual of Parrot Behavior explores the many facets of psittacine behavior, both normParrotsBehaviorElectronic books.ParrotsBehavior.636.6865Luescher Andrew U990676MiAaPQMiAaPQMiAaPQBOOK9910144839303321Manual of parrot behavior2266798UNINA
