African Grey parrots are considered one of the most intelligent bird species, with cognitive abilities similar to that of a 5-year-old human. They can solve puzzles, understand human emotions, and mimic human speech with incredible clarity. These parrots need a lot of mental enrichment through puzzles, toys, and activities to prevent boredom, which can lead to destructive behavior. These parrots do best with a consistent daily routine. They can become anxious or stressed if their environment or schedule changes frequently.
