There is a brand new zoo dedicated to parrots and other birds located north of Johannesburg in Mirand, South Africa. Lory Park, the largest bird zoo in Africa, is a sanctuary and breeding center for many different parrot species, such as macaws, Amazons, cockatoos, African parrots and lories/lorikeets, as well as touracos, hornbills, toucans, kookaburras, waterfowl and cranes. The main goal of Lory Park is to serve as an educational site for schools, the general public and other bird enthusiasts. With this in mind, the aviaries have all been designed to allow the public to view the birds from close proximity and to give the birds the opportunity to breed successfully without feeling threatened by constant observation.
