Personality Characteristics Predictive of Social Pairing Outcome in Orange-Winged Amazon Parrots ( Amazona amazonica )

Journal of Applied Animal Welfare Science, 2023
Most wild parrot species live in flocks, enriched by the environment and conspecific interactions. Captive parrots often live individually and are prone to behavioral maladaptation. If captive parrots and their behavior become intolerable, they are commonly relinquished to rescue organizations.

Flow cytometric quantitation of oxidative product formation by heterophils from orange-winged Amazon parrots (Amazona amazonica amazonica)

Comparative Haematology International, 1997
Oxidative metabolic burst activity by heterophils from orange-winged Amazon parrots (Amazona amazonica amazonica) was indirectly evaluated by measuring the oxidation of non-fluorescent intracellular 2′,7′-dichlorofluorescin (DCFH) to fluorescent 2′,7′-dichlorofluorescein (DCF) with flow cytometry.

Ovarian Hemangiosarcoma in an Orange-winged Amazon Parrot (Amazona amazonica)

Journal of Avian Medicine and Surgery, 2009
A 25-year-old intact female orange-winged Amazon parrot (Amazona amazonica) presented for a 2-week history of straining to defecate, lethargy, open-beak breathing, decreased vocalization, and ruffled feathers. On physical examination, the parrot had a heart murmur, increased air sac and lung sounds, open-beak breathing, increased respiratory rate and ...

Personality predicts cognitive bias in captive psittacines, Amazona amazonica

Animal Behaviour, 2014
The prevalence of stable behavioural differences between individuals of a species (i.e. personality) is puzzling because it indicates that there are limits on animals’ behavioural plasticity and, therefore, optimality of behaviour. Personality may result from individual state characteristics (e.g. morphology or physiology).

Mucoepidermoid Carcinoma in the Skull of an Orange-winged Amazon Parrot (Amazona amazonica)

Journal of Avian Medicine and Surgery, 2017
A 33-year-old female intact orange-winged Amazon parrot (Amazona amazonica) presented for a slowly growing mass over the right eye. A computed tomography scan performed with and without intravenous contrast revealed a heterogeneous mixed soft tissue and mineral-dense mass with a small area of non-contrast-enhancing fluid density located between the ...

Bathing behavior of captive Orange-winged Amazon parrots (Amazona amazonica)

Applied Animal Behaviour Science, 2011
Abstract Feather maintenance behaviors, particularly preening and bathing, are nearly universal in birds, though their expression and function vary across species. Based on the rain-bathing style of wild Amazon parrots, parrots were sprayed with water to simulate rainfall, and subsequent bathing behavioral parameters were recorded as well as ...

The effect of early environment on neophobia in orange-winged Amazon parrots (Amazona amazonica)

Applied Animal Behaviour Science, 2004
Early experience is often a significant factor in shaping animals’ later behavior. Early maternal separation is associated with negative behavioral outcomes, such as increased fearfulness in rats, while higher levels of maternal grooming during the neonatal period are associated with decreased fearfulness and increased exploratory behavior.

Preferences of Orange-winged Amazon parrots (Amazona amazonica) for cage enrichment devices

Applied Animal Behaviour Science, 2009
Abstract Cage enrichment devices (ED), frequently termed cage "toys," are often provided to captive parrots as a means of promoting a behaviorally stimulating environment, but it is not clear whether particular properties of EDs are more effective than others in eliciting engagement with them.
