Being the ego-driven humans we are, it has long been suggested that our ability for speech is a wholly unique and defining characteristic of our species. But this notion is based on the belief that parrots can mimic human speech through a combination of whistles that are fundamentally different from the human vocal chords.
评分我爱灰鸡。
评分很好的故事。
评分同意书中所说,我们不了解其他动物的语言,不等于我们比它们高级或更聪明。

"You be good. I love you," were Alex's final words to his owner, research scientist Irene Pepperberg, before his premature death at age thirty-one on September 6, 2007. An African Grey parrot, Alex had a brain the size of a shelled walnut, yet he could add, sound out words, understand concepts like bigger, smaller, more, fewer, and none, and he disproved the widely accepted idea that birds possess no potential for language or anything remotely comparable to human intelligence. Alex & Me is the remarkable true account of an amazing, irascible parrot and his best friend who stayed together through thick and thin for thirty years—the astonishing, moving, and unforgettable story of a landmark scientific achievement and a beautiful relationship.
