Birds (specifically parrots) as pets, is it ethical or not?

If you go that route, though, you have a higher likelihood of encountering a bird that has already been messed up, and therefore has even more exacting needs than usual.

This thread reminds me of Parrot Mountain, in Tennessee almost next door to Dollywood. Most of the birds there have signs warning not to try to touch or interact with them – they are birds who came to the sanctuary with issues.
