Brazilian drug dealers train parrot
The Guardian reports that a parrot has been taken into custody in Brazil following a police raid which targeted crack dealers. Brazilian press said the bird had been taught to alert criminals to police operations by shouting: "Mum, the police". The parrot was seized when officers swooped on a drug den run by a local couple. Police said as soon as they got close, the parrot started shouting. A journalist who came face-to-face with the imprisoned bird, said it had clammed up and hasn't said a word after its arrest. The parrot is now in a zoo.
