THE TROPICS

As the years passed, we were recognized for providing humane care to any exotic bird needing a home. Eventually, local and national television, newspapers, animal related publications and individuals with exotic birds came to notice our work. As a result, our bird population grew rapidly, increasing from five (5) birds in 1992 to a count of sixty-seven (67) birds by the end of 1996, over 300 birds in 2001, and topping out at over 450 birds within our 30 years of service... We at the The Tropics Exotic Bird Refuge provide long term care for any bird that we are asked to take in, regardless of the source. We have never had to turn away a bird and when we take a bird in we accept full responsibility for its care, including any medical attention it may require. On occasion we have been able to place a few birds into homes, but more commonly these birds wind up coming back to us because during the time we initially housed them they responded and bonded to us...
