Parrot Invasion Plagues Argentine Town
The town of Hilario Ascasubi in Argentina struggles with a parrot invasion. Thousands of parrots have descended on the town due to nearby deforestation, damaging infrastructure and disturbing the residents.
The town of Hilario Ascasubi, located near Argentina's eastern Atlantic coast, is grappling with a unique and unsettling problem – an invasion of parrots. These green-yellow-red birds, numbering in the thousands, have taken over the town, leaving locals struggling to go about their daily lives.
Biologists suggest that the parrots were driven to the town by deforestation in the surrounding hills, seeking new habitats. The result has been a chaotic disruption for the residents, as the birds bite through electric cables, causing frequent power outages.
Aside from the infrastructural damage, the parrots' incessant screeching and droppings have become a constant irritation for the people of Hilario Ascasubi, testing their patience as they seek solutions to this unexpected ecological challenge.
