The funny moment when this insane parrot have ability to vocal his thought to Selena Gomez, this was amazing situation ever seen with this parrot
I now will analyze shortly about how the parrot can talk like this: Key structural differences in the brains of parrots explain the birds' ability to imitate sounds and human speech
Dr Mukta Chakraborty of Duke University said: "This finding opens up a huge avenue of research in parrots, in trying to understand how parrots are processing the information necessary to copy novel sounds and what are the mechanisms that underlie imitation of human speech sounds."
Parrots are one of the few animals considered 'vocal learners' meaning they can imitate sounds
But why some birds are better than others has until now remained a mystery
One explanation had been brain size but by examining gene expression patterns, the new study published in PLOS ONE found that parrot brains are structured differently than the brains of songbirds and hummingbirds, which also exhibit vocal learning
In addition to having defined centres in the brain that control vocal learning called 'cores,' parrots have what the scientists call 'shells,' or outer rings, which are also involved in vocal learning
The shells are relatively bigger in species of parrots that are well known for their ability to imitate human speech, the group found.
Previous research has only looked at the budgerigar but the new study examined the brains of eight parrot species besides the budgerigar, including conures, cockatiels, lovebirds, two species of Amazon parrots, a blue and gold macaw, a kea and an African Grey parrot
