Congo African Grey Parrot
Psittacus erithacus erithacus
A medium-sized parrot found in the primary and secondary rainforest of West and Central Africa. Experts regard it as one of the most intelligent birds in the world. They feed primarily on palm nuts, seeds, fruits, and leafy matter, but have also been observed eating snails. Their overall gentle nature and their inclination and ability to mimic speech have made them popular pets, which has led many to be captured from the wild and sold into the pet trade. Texas animal lover, Cheryl Lampton, admires a magnificent six month old specimen at her favorite local pet store, "Out Of The Cage", that can already speak several phrases.
