This is a super cute story about a parrot that got lost and spoke its address to the humane society.
“A stray parrot was reunited with its owner in Japan after repeating its name and address at the local veterinary clinic that took it in, police said...”
Who’s a clever boy then? Yosuke talked his way out of trouble.
Police captured the red-tailed African Grey, Yosuke, after a woman called to say it was sitting on a fence in her backyard near Tokyo.
The parrot was then handed over to the animal clinic to be cared for.
It began by greeting people and singing popular children’s songs, before repeating its name and address.
Police matched the name with its owner, who was reunited with Yosuke.
The parrot had become lost after flying out of its cage in Nagareyama city, Chiba prefecture, near Tokyo.
"I’m glad I had taught him my address and name," the Daily Yomiuri newspaper quoted his owner as saying.
The African Grey parrot is considered one of the most intelligent birds and is said by experts to have the cognitive ability of a six-year-old.
