Animals are housed in impoverished cages in many countries. They are often labelled 'bored'. They have also been called 'apathetic' or 'depressed', particularly when profoundly inactive. It is a negative state of being caused by under-stimulation. It is definitely so very cruel to keep any animal or bird in captivity; worse still, confined in cages. An animal or bird needs to be carefree in its own environment, not stuck to suffer in a cage that contains bacteria, crammed conditions, with filthy defected crap accumulated. Many die from malnutrition, a disease to being bit by other species. Awful!
