Parrot Zoo in Bošovice

Parrot Zoo in Bošovice, Parrot sanctuary in Bošovice, Czech Republic

Parrot Zoo in Bošovice is a specialized facility that houses over 200 parrots representing about 50 different species, each kept in separate aviaries. The collection includes macaws, amazons, cockatoos, and African grey parrots, with each group displaying distinctive behaviors and characteristics.

Vlastimil Škrhák founded the Ara Farm in the 1980s, the predecessor of today's zoo. Aviaries were built from 2005, the facility received its zoo licence in 2008, and it opened to the public in summer 2011. New exhibits for further parrot species are still being added.

The place functions as a center for learning about bird conservation and natural habitats, where visitors can understand how these species live in the wild. Schools and families regularly visit to join guided tours and hear from people with deep knowledge of the birds.

The zoo lies in Bošovice in the South Moravian Region, about 25 km south of Brno. It opened to the public in summer 2011 and has been licensed as a zoo since 2008. More than 100 aviaries are in operation and further ones are under construction, so parts of the grounds may be a building site.

In 2018 the zoo added southern emerald conures, rare South American parrots obtained from private breeders, alongside vinaceous amazons. The conures are not the southernmost naturally occurring parrot, as older texts claimed. The zoo also keeps African species such as the grey parrot and the Senegal parrot.
