Five foul-mouthed parrots have been separated after learning to swear at a Lincolnshire zoo in the UK. The parrots – named Billy, Elsie, Eric, Jade and Tyson – joined Lincolnshire Wildlife Park’s colony of 200 grey parrots in August. But soon after, they started encouraging each other to swear. The parrots have since been distributed to different areas of the park.
No one had complained about the parrots, but they were separated for the sake of young visitors and in the hopes that they would pick up natural calls from the other African greys.
“People have come to us but they think it’s highly amusing, we haven’t had one complaint,” he said. “When a parrot tells you to fuck off, it amuses people very highly. It’s brought a big smile to a really hard year.”
