For 30 years, Alex showed he could speak, count, identify objects, and express feelings.

  • 0.43 i want crack :D

  • his last words were good bye i love you be good

  • @Babygirl91580. If they didn't put him through all that training, he would just be a regular parrot. I do agree with you though, he is amazing!

  • @gordopie11 i agree with you completely but keep in mind that not all pet owners keep their parrots caged up all day i have an african grey parrot and we allow him to fly around the house freely

  • 英語の教科書で見ました!

    alexすごい!ヾ(≧∇≦)

  • Makes me wonder what are the most intelligent animals are, I'm sure there's a PECKING order. :<))

    I'm not sure which was the pet but he would certinly qualify as a family member in any home, he's closer to a child. I have heard people say that what separates man from animals is that animals cannot reason, so they cannot have a soul. Ahem... this raises many questions, doesn't it?

  • Alex and I are the same age. I wish I could have met him. Such a beautiful creature

  • @IDQMF Imagine you are being confined to a wheelchair and have never tasted the joy of walking upright as a human being . Your entire existence is being a subject of someone else's life-long experiment for which the end result is already known. When I watched the videos, I see Alex have asked Pepperberg many times that he wants to go back - meaning he doesn't want to do it anymore but Pepperberg kept forcing him to continue. If this is not mental torture, I don't know what is.

  • @joyandjoynesscharlie I read that Alex's last words were "You be good. I love you."

  • i so sorry about alex and :(
