Quote At the British zoo Lincolnshire Wildlife Centre, keeping some of the bird residents' vocabulary limited to G-rated language has proven challenging and park employees had to go as far as separating five African grey parrots to squash the swearing. According to the Associated Press, Billy, Eric, Tyson, Jade, and Elsie who all were welcomed to the park in August were removed from each other's presences since they were encouraging each other to curse and rally in expletive-filled rants together. Though most visitors who overheard the colorful language laughed it off "When a parrot tells you to 'f--- off' it amuses people very highly; its brought a big smile to a really hard year," said Nichols the zoo decided to take measures to nip the behavior in the bud. |
