Currently most of the scientific community has not recognized that parrots are capable of higher order thinking such as conversational language or concept formation. This site provides audio and video proof that they can. My goal is to lobby the scientific community so they do not ignore this case study and accept it as an important breakthrough in the animal intelligence field.
The main focus of this study is on a budgie named Victor who had a vocabulary of more than 800 words and thousands of phrases. The site shows how he pronounced them and understood their meanings as well. On this site you can hear him conversing on many different topics. We believe these recordings to be some of the most important evidence ever provided in the animal intelligence research field.
All I ask is that you keep an open mind and spend enough time on the site to adjust yourself to the budgie accent. All audio recordings are provided with captions to assist you in understanding them better.
