PARROTS

are Popular!

Parrots are the fourth most popular pet in America, following dogs, cats, and fish. Although there are over 393 species of Parrots, they all have several things in common.

Parrots can live over 60 years and are extremely intelligent birds. They have the ability to add and subtract numbers and possess a logical mind similar to a 4-yearold human. Their ability to mimic human voices and other common sounds in the household like doorbells and telephone ringtones is their way of trying to fit into their environment and communicate. Some parrots have been known to have a vocabulary of up to 2,000 words and may repeat words and phrases they have heard at some VERY inappropriate times!
