The Smartest Pet Ever

Birds are exceptionally intelligent. They've got very small brains, but they seem to be wired up differently. So an eagle, if it was looking at Jupiter at night, could see the four moons of Jupiter. Whereas us humans, we have to use the telescope. The smartest pet ever known was Alex, which was an African grey parrot. That's a bird. And he was tested for over 30 years. He stood for something learning experiment or something like that. What is your question? My question is a poo and a poop. How do you eat a lot of beetroot and then go to the toilet?' "I'm basically curious," says Mr Excavator Man.
