Pet birds per capita
Estimated pet birds per capita by country, calculated from reported pet-bird populations divided by human population for the same year (mostly 2022).

Key Insights
- •Highest per-capita values in this dataset are observed in parts of Southern/Eastern Europe (e.g., Greece, Bulgaria, Austria, Italy).
- •Many Western/Northern European countries cluster around ~0.05–0.12 pet birds per person.
- •Non-European examples shown here vary widely: Australia is relatively high, while the US and especially Japan are lower on this measure.
- •Because the metric is computed from heterogeneous sources, it is most reliable for within-source comparison (e.g., among FEDIAF countries).

About This Statistic
Pet birds per capita estimates the average number of pet birds owned per person in a country. Because few countries publish an official “pet birds per person” indicator, this metric is derived by combining reported pet-bird population totals (from pet industry federations, national pet reports, and market-research summaries) with human population figures for the same year.
For Europe, the primary input is FEDIAF’s 2022 country-level pet population figures, divided by World Bank total population (2022). For non-European countries, the indicator is computed from comparable national/industry reports (e.g., Animal Medicines Australia; Instituto Pet Brasil) and population totals from the World Bank for the matching year. Values are rounded to 4 decimals and intended for map visualization and cross-country comparison rather than precise household-level ownership measurement.
Methodology
For each country, compute: (estimated total number of pet birds) ÷ (total human population) for the same year. European country totals come from FEDIAF 2022 pet population figures; population denominators come from the World Bank (2022). For select non-European countries where comparable pet-bird totals were available, totals were taken from national/industry reports (often via Statista or national associations) and divided by World Bank population for the same year (e.g., US 2022; Australia 2022; Japan 2022; Brazil 2018; Canada 2018). Values are rounded to 4 decimals.
