Greys Stolen in Florida

[Terry57]

This infuriated me, those poor birds. How terrified they must have been to have been ripped from the cage like that. I hope they are found and those men punished.
Miami homeowner, bird thieves exchange gunfire; 2 parrots stolen ? 7News ? WSVN-TV

That is horrible!

Vile trash, shame the owner missed instead of hitting them right in the [butt]. Probably just see dollar signs instead of sentient beings who are emotionally bonded to their human family. I cannot imagine the heartbreak Mr. Pena is feeling right now. Hope he gets his birds back and the thieves get more than just a slap on the wrist.

Poor parrots are going to be so traumatised after that experience...I hope they get good loving and understanding homes if the owner doesnt somehow get them back...it would be nice to think they got home safe and I really hope none of the parrots got shot in the crossfire ...terrible thst such a thing can happen

Oh man how horrible. Those poor birds literally being ripped out of the cage like that is so heartbreaking, so many feathers torn out they have to be in pain. I can't imagine how terrified they were...are.

An absolutely savage act. Parrots, and Greys in particular are extremely sensitive. I hope the Greys are quickly returned to Mr. Pena, and the bandits caught and tossed into a miserable, damp, dark, vermin infested prison cell for a LONG time.

Oh jeez. And to hear shots fired. I didn't watch the video if there was one. It's as much to know that greys are very very sensitive birds as it is. They are going to be traumatized. So very sad. This reminds me of the pet store incident where someone just waltzed their way in and snatched a grey out in the open. That's unacceptable [on both ends]. Both stories are heartbreaking. I hate to know the reasoning behind bird snatching, and really don't want to.

I hope they capture these menace crooks and have a cell filled with birds on top and have any and every type of bird poop coming down on them. But that's asking for very little compared to what the birds go through.

My little bird happy ending is saying the birds will be found.
