INTERNATIONAL


TURACO SOCIETY


In January 1993 a group of turaco enthusiasts met at the Cotswold Wildlife Park, Burford and the International Turaco Society was formed. The objectives of the Society are twofold:


Firstly, we encourage anyone interested in keeping and breeding turacos in aviculture to join us. Secondly, the Society acts as a forum to collect and disseminate information about the various turaco species. We are particularly


interested in increasing understanding of the ecology, behaviour and distribution of the wild Turaco family in Africa and so sometimes sponsor projects in Africa to help achieve this aim.


There is a magazine published twice a year, which contains articles and


information about meetings, news items and a ‘Wanted & For Sale’ page, free to members.


The society has a website: www.turacos.org which displays turaco information for the general public, but also has a ‘Members’ only area. There is an AGM in the Spring and the committee may also meet during the year. In addition,


visits to private and public collections, which may include turacos, are arranged. The membership fee is £12.00 per annum in the UK and £13 (or equivalent) for overseas members.


Subscriptions are due on 1st January each year.
