Have you seen his feathers? He does not have a tail?? Has Dr. Pepperberg ever explained this? The bird has plucked all of his wing feathers, tail feathers and his body feathers. Pepperberg is not a vet and has overworked him. Happy healthy birds dont pluck. And have you watched any of the videos? The poor bird looks tired. She should be brought up on charges of animal abuse!! I am owned by A blue-fronted amazon, a blue and gold macaw and an african grey. None of my birds are plucking or screaming AND i work full time!! Alex was abused and I'm sick of seeing all these donations to go to her "foundation" when there are birds out there that truely need help or need adopted!! - Cassandra Okay yes Alex is very intelligent… however have you seen him?
