When in Taif I encountered men illegally trapping wild birds, endemic Arabian Serin and Yemen Linnet, beautiful birds with beautiful songs. He told me they sell them in the cities for 50 SAR each. Do you homework and ask questions so that you’re not inadvertently contributing to illegal wildlife trade. Purchase only those bred in captivity if you must.
...I don't think that birds are a popular pet here.
ReplyDeleteMy grandfather always kept budgie birds. Interesting pets! I’ve never seen a store just for pet birds though.
ReplyDeleteWell stocked!
