The Hagen Avicultural Research Institute (HARI) has gained
a respected international reputation for its work in avian research,
nutrition and husbandry.
HARI was established in 1985 and continues to evolve into a world class
Psittacine captive breeding, nutrition and disease research facility. Present staff
includes the Director, Mark D. Hagen, M.Ag., Consulting Veterinarians
Dr. Louise Bauck, Dr. Michael Taylor, three Veterinary Technicians, and three
Livestock Attendants. The range of fifty parrot species at HARI is a
good representation of parrots currently in captivity. Work is continuing on new
diets, healthy treats, and supplements for those birds. The breeding and disease
research is shared with breeders all over the world and HARI staff have spoken
at all major US avicultural conferences.
