At Paradise Park we believe it is the duty of anyone who keeps a rare species of bird or animal to do whatever they can to promote a healthy captive population. We also believe that birds in the wild are facing increasingly greater pressures.
Paradise Park and the charity based here - The World Parrot Trust - do their utmost to raise awareness and funds for conservation projects around the world.

Many of our birds are on "breeding loan" to other collections, who in turn lend us birds to pair up here. The details of every bird at Paradise Park are kept on a computerised record keeping system which is compiled in the USA onto an international database. The purpose of this is to record numbers of captive breeding birds and also to ensure a diversity of the gene pool.
The results we have achieved have been widely recognised.
