Leave Charlie alone

I am disgusted by the person who has felt it necessary to demand the release of Charlie the cockatoo in a letter to the editor (Help Liberate Charlie, Mail, 19 January 2016).
1. His cage is not too small.
2. He has lived there since a small bird and would be totally unable to live in the wild. I suggest you talk to the carers at the sanctuary for facts not fiction.
3. How dare you go out of your way to cause Charlie’s owner more heartache by writing that letter.
