	Parrot - Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia (Site not responding. Last check: 2007-11-01)
		Parrots have a characteristic curved beak shape with the upper mandible having slight mobility in the joint with the skull and a generally erect stance.
		Birds of the parrot family can be found in most of the warmer parts of the world, including India, South East Asia and West Africa, with one species, now extinct, in the United States (the Carolina Parakeet).
		Many other scholars claim that parrots are only repeating words with no idea of their meanings and point to Pepperberg's results as being nothing but an expression of operant conditioning.

		Parrots and Humans Parrots are among the most familiar of bird species to the general public, and are generally held in esteem and affection even by people uninterested in natural history or conservation.
		Parrots also have historically been valued as objects of trade between cultures, leading to their distribution far beyond the boundaries of their natural ranges and their establishment in numerous feral exotic populations.
		Parrots are susceptible to over 30 known pathogens and disease syndromes, many of which are widespread in captive collections and some of which cannot be reliably detected in carrier birds by presently available tests or standard quarantine procedures.

		This parrot qualifies as Endangered because its very small range and population are declining as a result of extensive habitat loss and fragmentation.
		The Sangihe Hanging-parrot is one of (now) seven threatened members of the suite of (now) 10 bird species that are entirely restricted to the "Sangihe and Talaud Endemic Bird Area" (see Remarks 6 under Caerulean Paradise-flycatcher Eutrichomyias rowleyi), threats and conservation measures in which are profiled by Sujatnika et al.
		A detailed ecological study of this parrot is needed, but meanwhile local people could be encouraged not to clear remnant forest patches and trees adjacent to or in plantations.

		The remote Sangihe and Talaud islands are situated in the Celebes Sea between Sulawesi and the Philippine island of Mindanao.
		In early 1999, flights to Sangihe and Talaud had fallen victim to the country's economic crisis and it was only possible to reach the islands by boat.
		This beautiful parrot is endemic to Sangihe and Talaud, but the population of the nominate Sangihe race is extremely small, and lories have only been seen at Talawid; birds were recorded in 1995, but absent from the site in 1996, and should be looked for in both forest patches and in plantations.

		A survey in 1998-1999 resulted in a population estimate for Sangihe Hanging-parrot (10,700-46,200) that is sufficiently high to recommend that the species’s threat status be downgraded.
		The density estimate figures show that the species had little preference for forest and, as in previous years, this was a widely distributed species occurring up to altitudes of c.1,000 m.
		The author proposed that the species’s status should be reduced to globally near-threatened and its population monitored carefully.

	bp conservation programme
		The Sangihe and Talaud islands support three of Indonesia’s four endangered parrot species; these are: Red-and -blue Lory Eos histrio, Sangihe Hanging-parrot Loriculus catamene and Blue-naped Parrot Tanygnathus lucionensis.
		Building on their 1995 surveys on the islands of Talaud and Sangihe in Indonesia, the team returned in 1996 to initiate a conservation programme for the endangered Red-and-blue Lory (Eos histrio) and undertook further research on the islands' endemic avifauna.
		This year activities on Sangihe and Talaud will take place in four broad areas: awareness work with local communities; training and development of Forestry Conservation Department officials; consultation and co-ordination with local government officials; further research into the status, ecology and conservation of endangered parrot species.

		The project built on the work undertaken by the team in 1995, researching the status of the islands’ threatened and endemic bird species, as well as pioneering a community-based conservation awareness program.
		On Sangihe, work was focused on Mt. Sahengbalira, where Sangihe’s last forests cling to steep ridges.
		The research team focused on parrot species but also gathered evidence suggesting the endemic Talaud Kingfisher Halycon enigma fully deserves its specific status, and noted large numbers of the threatened Grey Imperial Pigeon Ducula pickeringii.

	Where do you want to go birding in Indonesia today?
		The Red and Blue Lory Eos histrio, endemic to Sangihe and the Talaud Islands in Indonesia, has seriously declined in the wild state, to the extent that the nominate subspecies from Sangihe might be extinct, especially if hybridisation has occurred with the introduced subspecies talautensis.
		Habitat alteration has occurred on the islands, but the major threat in recent years has been from trapping, even though the species is included in Appendix I of the Convention on the International Trade of Endangered Species (CITES) and the Indonesian Government has set a zero capture quota for this species.
		Other species are the Red-flanked Lorikeet Charmosyna placentis, Violet-necked Lory Eos squamata, Moluccan Hanging Parrot Loriculus amabilis, Moluccan King Parrot Alisterus amboinensis, Red-cheeked Parrot Geoffroyus geoffroyi, Eclectus Parrot Eclectus roratus, and Great-billed Parrot Tanygnathus megalorhynchus.
