In a peculiar turn of events, a flock of foul-mouthed parrots at the Lincolnshire Wildlife Park in Friskney, England has become an unexpected sensation. The notorious parrots, notorious for their profanity-laden language, have both mortified and amused park staff and visitors alike.

The park has devised a new plan to tame the parrots' salty language by integrating them into a larger flock. The hope is that they will learn "nicer sounds and words," according to Steve Nichols, the park's CEO. However, for now, the parrots' obscene outbursts continue without bounds.

Earlier this week, as interest in the park's African grey parrots skyrocketed, Nichols set up a video link to speak with a BBC program. However, during the TV segment, one of the parrots in the background made quite lewd and inappropriate noises, leaving Nichols in an awkward position. Despite the initial embarrassment, Nichols found comfort in the fact that both visitors to the park and online spectators seemed perfectly willing to accept the parrots as they are, profanity and all.

The park has taken precautions by placing a warning sign near the parrots' habitat, alerting visitors that they should expect to hear "every common swear word" and urging them to guide children away from the area. Surprisingly, rather than causing outrage, the unique speech patterns of the parrots have become a source of amusement for the park's human workers, who find it hilarious that the birds they care for have gained international media attention.

It is not the first time these parrots have caused a stir. When five African grey parrots - Billy, Elsie, Eric, Jade, and Tyson - were donated to the park during the early stages of the COVID-19 pandemic, park staff had to isolate them from public spaces to prevent their explicit language from reaching visitors' ears. Presently, the park houses around eight of these profanity-prone birds, necessitating explicit-language advisories.

According to an academic paper from 2010, grey parrots possess exceptional imitative abilities. This talent for vocal learning and reproduction has been recognized since ancient times, with even Aristotle praising their aptitude in this area.

The question arises as to whether the parrots are teaching each other these foul words or if the profanity is coming from humans. Nichols firmly believes that humans are solely responsible for the birds' colorful vocabulary, particularly since this particular parrot species is known to replicate a person's voice with uncanny accuracy. He shares an anecdote about a lady who claimed her husband had taught their parrot all the profane words it knew. However, Nichols quickly caught her in a lie, as the parrot swore in her voice during their conversation.

Despite the unexpected challenges posed by these profanity-prone parrots, the Lincolnshire Wildlife Park has managed to turn the situation into a global talking point. As the park continues to gain media attention, both the staff and visitors have developed a lighthearted attitude towards the explicit language of these avian residents.
