What do you think about that? Is it cruel? I just think that the parrot is trying to happy, but he/she does not have a freedom because of the metal chain. I am thinking of the fingernail that tells us that he/she doesn't like it at all so he/she expresses him/herself to be a fake happy by not thinking about the chain. I wish that there is an easy way to contact PETA and let someone to take care of that and trace that damn photographer who doesn't have a mortal about it.
Yes, that's wrong to force the animals for people to capture them with the camera, it's the animals abuse!
But if that's for when they want the parrot to stop flying in the house bothering them, then they have right to lock the parrot...
I did the photography for my dog when I was a photography student, and never force her anything, but trying to make her calm down by petting her, or giving her treats, etc.
