Happy Hopping

Hopefield Animal Sanctuary in Brentwood, UK has a parrot that passed away. He lost his nostrils due to a lack of UV lighting.
Then someone else told me that UVB lighting (Vitamin D3) in almost all cases needs to be supplemented by artificial lighting... Windows in our homes block out 95% + of UV required by our pet birds.
So I wonder does rabbit needs the same thing? That we should take them outside under the sun whenever possible?
here's a link on UV light on birds

On the other hand, UVB can cause skin cancer, so exactly what should we do here?
