The prosthesis, handmade of polymethylmethacrylate by a local veterinarian, fits and functions perfectly. /VCG

The bird rescued was found without a beak, according to Renascer ACN, the animal center which rescued it. /VCG

The parrot will not be returned to its natural habitat any time soon, given the risk of the prosthesis failing over time. /VCG
