About LAS
|
The
Louisiana Aviculture Society (LAS) is a non-profit organization for bird lovers.
Its purpose is to educate and instruct on the proper care, handling and
maintenance of psittaciformes, to encourage companion bird and captive
breeding programs, and to encourage research and educational programs about
parrots and other pet birds.
|
|
The Louisiana Aviculture
Society is composed of both pet bird owners and breeders. We publish a
monthly newsletter, From The Perch, which includes club information,
photos, classified ads and informative articles on bird care. Our main
purpose is to educate bird owners about responsible bird care. LAS is
a non-profit corporation. A portion
of our annual budget is donated to support avian researchers such as Dr.
Tom Tulley at LSU School of Veterinary Medicine. Through Project Safe Parrot, we
coordinate the rescue and rehabilitation of unwanted birds through an
association of concerned breeders and individual family members.

At LAS it is all about the
birds. We are dedicated to responsible bird ownership through
education and example. Our members include breeders, pet shop
owners, and parrot owners who share their homes with many birds, and there
are members who are proud to have that one special parrot, finch, canary,
cockatiel or parakeet. Please join us and share the unique experience
of membership in Louisiana Aviculture Society.
