How to use the posters

Are you a teacher, vet, activist, concerned student, parrot advocate? Then these free parrot posters are for you to help you educate others about the issues surrounding captive and wild parrots!

The posters on this site have been designed to share online (ie facebook or twitter), and to print and display. You can print them wherever you are on your own home computer, or send them to be printed as photos at London Drugs, Costco etc.

Put them up in an office, classroom, animal-friendly store. Hand them out at avian conventions or as part of your educational program. Click here to see how the posters are being used by others.

Yes, they are free; the photographs and work to design them have been donated to the cause. We want to make it very easy for people to help educate and promote the cause for parrots.

How to download and print the posters

The full-size posters are 8″ x 10″.

This will allow you to either print the poster as an  8″ x 10″ photograph (very snazzy) or print them at home on an 8.5″ x 11″ sheet of paper. It’s up to you. Since the files are printable, they are about 1 – 2 MB each.

1. To get the printable poster, find the blue “Download the poster here” button on each poster page.  There is one on each poster page, at the very bottom of the post. It is a blue button.

It looks like this:

This will allow your to save the printable poster to your computer, where you can then open it and print it.

3. Once the poster is downloaded, just print it as you would any other file.
