This is a longer video about Bett, the rescued Macaw, her friend Geronimo and their person. She makes the point that these beautiful birds are an incredible amount of work and expense, their need for attention is huge and that they will live longer than both you and your child. In other words, they require a major commitment and even with the willingness to do so, they are still better off wild and free.

so sad to hear when stuff like that happens
