"Zoo's Innovative Approach to Curb Swearing Parrots"
A British wildlife park is attempting to rehabilitate its foul-mouthed African gray parrots by integrating them with newly donated cuss-happy birds into the flock, hoping they will pick up "nice noises" from the non-swearing parrots. The park's chief executive noted that the parrots precisely echo the sounds they hear and that the expletives are particularly easy for African grays to mimic. Despite the park's installation of warning signs, there have been no complaints from visitors, and the park is optimistic that the parrots will eventually mend their potty-mouthed ways.
