There's nothing better than a happy ending.



A parrot named Pepo spent five days being 'interrogated' in an Argentinian prison until he named his owner.

Two people had claimed ownership of the bird, and a judge decided that if he was left alone, Pepo would eventually say the name of his owner.

On his fifth day 'in custody', Pepo not only said his owner's name, but also sang his favourite soccer team's anthem.



Not so happy for the guy who lost I suppose, but at least the parrot got to choose smile

Too funny.

They could have just resorted to who the parrot would allow to handle him.
With the parrots I live with, if you're not my wife or I, and attempt to get them to step up, more than likely you'll be rushing yourself to the ER with broken finger (or in the case of the smaller birds, you might end up with cuts all over one of them, or in the case of the largest bird a broken wrist).
