[quote=MIRANDAZHAO,246253]A piece of sad news:

" Alex, the famous African grey parrot has died of unknown causes aged 31.

Irene Pepperberg, a researcher at Brandeis University in Waltham, Massachusetts, who was Alex's owner and trainer, said that the bird last Friday, hours after she had told him: "I love you. See you tomorrow."

It was "the worst day of my life," says Pepperberg.

Alex was bought in a pet store 30 years ago. By the time of his death, he had a confirmed vocabulary of over 100 English words that he could apparently understand and use correctly, rather than merely 'parroting' them."

After reading this news, I believe this parrot  has a high "IQ". It is " Einstein of Parrots". It seems that this parrot is clever than me , since it can use the English words accurately. Sometimes, I was just wondering what life would be like, if I were a parrot.  I'd rather to be a parrot, or a bird in the wild, but not a parrot confined in a cage. I think Alex agree with me, although he is more talented than me.[/quote]
