Aviornis International Netherlands
AVIORNIS INTERNATIONAL brings together devoted breeders of non-passerine birds. It is one of the most important organisations in Europe in its field with around 8.000 members in 6 European countries. Approximately 625 bird species are successfully kept by our members.
The objectives of Aviornis International are:
- To support and co-operate with other organisations on scientific programs to preserve bird species that have become nearly extinct.
- To stimulate (inter)national exchange of young birds in order to keep genetically healthy stocks of each species.
- To help our members with advice and information on the husbandry and breeding management of the wide diversity of bird species.
- To contribute, together with other international organisations, to scientific programs, aimed at the re-introduction of bird species that have become (locally) extinct due to natural catastrophes or other reasons.
