Typical hazards & measures
Injury to birds from improper handling by staff
— Provide comprehensive training for all staff on proper bird handling techniques. Regularly assess and refresh training to maintain high standards.
Unintentional injury to birds during transport
— Use specialized transport crates with proper ventilation and soft padding. Avoid stacking crates to prevent toppling. Secure birds with travel jesses and ensure perches are non-slip. Monitor for stress signs during travel.
Birds escaping during transport or display
— Use secure, well-maintained transport boxes and equipment. Regularly inspect for wear and tear, and ensure all closures are secure during transit and display.
Inadequate supervision of public interactions with birds
— Maintain a strict handler-to-bird ratio to ensure each bird is properly monitored. Use signage to instruct visitors on appropriate behavior. Only allow pre-approved interaction under direct supervision with clear safety briefings beforehand.
Potential aggression between birds in close quarters
— House birds separately unless they are compatible. Train handlers to recognize early signs of aggression. Use perches that provide adequate spacing to prevent birds from reaching each other.
