The impact of the burrowing parrots on local infrastructure is profound, leaving towns like Pedro Luro and Hilario Ascasubi struggling with frequent power outages and expensive repairs.
According to TAXI FM Director Ramón Álvarez, the parrots have not only damaged power lines with their weight but also caused constant short circuits, aggravating local situations.
Electric companies have incurred over 75 million pesos in repair costs due to damage from the parrots, showcasing the significant economic burden on these rural communities.
Local council member María del Valle Otero indicated that the parrots' increasing presence has forced Hilario Ascasubi’s electric cooperative to sell land to manage rising expenses.
