When birds are kept in cages, they are restricted in their movements and are unable to engage in many of these natural behaviors. Additionally, birds in captivity may not have access to the proper environmental stimuli that they would have in the wild. They may lack proper nesting materials, opportunities for social interaction, and a varied diet. This lack of stimulation can lead to boredom and frustration in captive birds, which can result in unhealthy behaviors such as feather plucking, aggression, or excessive vocalization. Overall, keeping birds in cages deprives them of the opportunity to live according to their natural instincts and behaviors. It is important for bird owners to provide a stimulating and enriching environment for their feathered friends to ensure their physical and mental well-being.
