Man Has Police Show Up At His House Because His Parrot Sounds Like A Woman Screaming For Help
A Florida man’s parrot caused quite a scare when neighbors thought they heard a woman screaming for help next door. The call brought police to the house, only for officers to find a much less alarming explanation waiting in the driveway.
The man was working on his car when police arrived, and he quickly offered to show them the source of the noise. That’s when Rambo, his yellow-naped Amazon parrot, stepped into the spotlight and made the whole situation make sense.
Now the bird’s long-running habit is getting plenty of attention, and the neighbors are probably listening a little more closely than before.
The man told the officers he has had the 40-year-old bird since childhood.
He explained that, as a child, he taught Rambo to scream for help as a way to annoy his parents. Of course, he didn't realize at the time what a problem that could become in the future.
Amazon parrots are extremely popular pets due to their ability to pick up speech. These birds can live for more than 50 years and love to attract attention.
This echoes the feud where a man accused his brother of bribing his parrot’s affection with toys.
Rambo was more than happy to show off his vocabulary to the officers and later to the local news crew that came to interview him.
Rambo's owner has since taken him around the neighborhood to introduce him personally and explain his antics to avoid any future confusion.
Here's what people had to say.
