MISSION & VISION
香港鸚鵡救援是隸屬於海峰環保教育的一個鸚鵡救援計劃。此計劃致力於教導市民正確的鸚鵡飼養及照顧方法，除了提供適當的飲食、安全且適當的生活環境之外，由於鸚鵡屬於智商較高的動物，我們也希望教導飼養者如何在情感上照顧鸚鵡的需求。如果您有意選擇鸚鵡作為寵物，在購買前，請務必認真考慮，做好準備工作。
疫情持續令市民需要居家工作或減少外出。不少市民因此心血來潮，決定飼養鸚鵡作伴。但或許因為鸚鵡的行為不似預期，或欠缺飼養經驗，棄養及飛失個案數量亦長期居高不下。在香港鸚鵡救援跟進的個案中，飛失個案佔了相當的比重。我們成功幫助其中一部分鸚鵡尋回主人；而無法尋回主人或主人棄養的個案，我們會妥善照顧，並代為尋找合適的領養家庭。部分個案中的鸚鵡，由於主人疏忽照顧而出現營養不良或情緒問題。遇到此類情況，在雀歸原主時，我們也會提供相關知識，希望藉此提高鸚鵡回家之後的生活質素。最極端的情況，獲救的鸚鵡已因疏於照顧而極端虛弱，需要醫生診斷及專業照顧，甚或在恢復健康之後由義工陪伴以改善精神狀況。此類個案中獲救的鸚鵡，在恢復精神及身體健康之後，將由香港鸚鵡救援代為尋找合資格的領養家庭。
Hong Kong Parrot Rescue (HKPR) is an initiative under AquaMeridian Conservation & Education. We are dedicated to improving the lives of pet parrots in captivity by educating parrot owners & carers on correct diet and living environment of parrots. Through education, we help people understand that these highly sociable and intelligent birds need special consideration to meet their emotional and physical needs. We sincerely urge prospective owners to consider carefully before acquiring a parrot.
The coronavirus pandemic has brought about a surge in the local pet trade due to more folks staying at home. Many inexperienced people have bought parrots on a whim and that has resulted in a lot of unwanted parrots or parrots getting loose. HKPR has often recovered lost pet birds from the dangers of being outdoors to reunite them with their owners. If the owner could not be found, or if the owner no longer wants the bird, we insure that they well cared for and are then placed in secure loving homes. We also hope to help parrots in neglected situations improve their lives. At times, this could simply mean educating a responsible owner on better care, but we have also encountered parrots in extremely poor condition due to neglect and negligence. These may require medical care, intensive nursing, and/or rehabilitation before we can place them into new adoptive homes.
