Parrots Can Live for a Very Long Time

Parrots have a long life expectancy of 40 to 80 years or more. It is considered a great milestone for humans to reach, but it is also the lifespan of some parrots. However, it is difficult to give an average lifespan for a parrot because every species is vastly different. The bigger the parrot, the longer its lifespan. African Grey parrots can live 60 to 70 years, while medium-sized parrots commonly live between 15 to 20 years. Cockatoos and macaws can live to be 70 or 80 years old. The world’s oldest parrot was an 83-year-old cockatoo who passed away in 2016. Pet parrots live longer than wild ones because they are shielded from predators and diseases.

Parrots Make Great Companions

The most fun thing about parrots is their ability to make amazing companions. Parrots thrive as members of the family outside of their cage. They are attention seekers and like to be with you. Although they can be silly, intelligent, and chatty, it’s fascinating to watch a parrot do parrot things. Owning a parrot as a pet can be quite tedious and requires a lot of knowledge and expertise before jumping in, but it is worth it if you are willing to provide all they need in a human companion.

Parrots Are Very Intelligent

Parrots are among the most intelligent animals in the world and are known for being extremely smart, using tools to solve complex mechanical problems — for example, the Goffin cockatoo. Extensive research has shown that some parrots have the intelligence of a 4-year-old toddler and can be taught memory games, tricks, and skits. It is no surprise that Hollywood often chooses to put parrots in movies for entertainment. It is such an amazing sight to see! Many magicians also incorporate parrots into their performances.

Some Parrots Can Talk

It is no surprise that many species of parrot can talk. We’ve often seen this in movies, and it’s not just some prank. The parrots can mimic human words, but their sophisticated communication skills may influence them. If you have a parrot, then there is every tendency that it’s likely to pick up certain words and phrases that you often say, such as “Hello.”

Having no vocal cords like humans, they talk by using the muscles in their throats to direct airflow in a certain way, which allows them to mimic different sounds and tones. Studies show that Alex, a famous African grey parrot, had a vocabulary of about 100 words and phrases.

There Are 398 Species of Parrot

Parrots comprise 398 species of the order Psittaciformes and are commonly found in tropical and subtropical regions of Asia, Australia, Central and South America, and Africa. However, some parrots do live outside tropical environments. The Kea is the world’s only parrot to inhabit the alpine climates of New Zealand, nesting in the roots of trees. Its thick feathers and rounded body help to conserve body heat, making it possible to live in cold environments, specifically high up in the mountains.

Parrots Eat With Their feet and Have Curved Beaks

Parrots are the only birds that can eat with their feet. They have four toes on each foot and a curved beak. All parrots have two toes facing forward and two toes facing backward, which are used for feeding, climbing, and grabbing branches or toys. This is known as zygodactyl. Another prominent feature is a curved beak that helps open up seeds, nuts, and hard fruits. This strong beak is also great for preening. The largest macaws can crush a basil nut and break open metal cages using their powerful beak!
