Anyone who thinks birds aren't as awesome as other pets needs to see this video for a good reality check!
If you haven't noticed, we're pretty obsessed with animals here at LittleThings…especially when it comes to animal and human relationships. There's no denying that canines got the nickname "man's best friend" for a reason, but it's pretty incredible how other animals, like this dolphin who saved a diver in distress, have human qualities.
Although humans have successfully taught primates to communicate through sign language, when it comes to "talking" animals, parrots are always the first to come to mind. However, as you'll see in this next video, parrots don't just pick up on what they hear; They also mirror what humans do, and it's pretty incredible.
In the following video, which was posted to YouTube by user "AngelEyedBoidan," we see an extremely intelligent cockatoo named Max who knows exactly how to get what he wants from his owner. We've seen how much parrots like to be pet by humans before, and this bird is no different — but when you see exactly what he does to get his owner to give him a little massage, you'll be blown away!
If this amazing video makes you want a cockatoo of your own, please SHARE it with all of your friends on Facebook!
