Barbara Heidenreich
In 1982 Barbara Heidenreich secured her first job working with animals in a veterinary hospital. After exploring different animal related jobs and receiving her degree in Zoology from UC Davis in 1990, Barbara started her career as an animal trainer in a zoological park. She has been a professional trainer ever since.

Nearly one-third of all parrot species are threatened in the wild. And millions of pet parrots share our lives and homes.
As a leader in parrot conservation and welfare, the World Parrot Trust works with parrot enthusiasts, researchers, local communities and government leaders to encourage effective solutions that protect parrots.
To do this, we focus on:
- Conducting and supporting field conservation projects,
- Working to eliminate the international trade in wild caught parrots and;
- Increasing awareness of the plight of parrots, in the wild and in captivity.
In recent years we have achieved remarkable and positive results in our efforts for parrot conservation and welfare; work made possible by the generous support of members and donors like you.
