Parrot Jungle

As proud hosts of the jungle, these parrots lift their beaks high and holler. Sometimes pretentious but always precocious, with the most brilliant feathers anywhere, these bird's breasts are brushed by heaven and boast the many beautiful colors of the rainbow, all at once. Parrots, along with ravens and crows, are some of the most intelligent birds on earth. The ability of some parrot species to imitate human voices enhances their popularity as pets. Studies with the African Grey Parrot have shown that some are able to associate words with their meanings and form simple sentences. Some large parrot species, including large cockatoos, amazons, and macaws, have a lifespan of up to 80 years with record setting ages of over 100.
