The swearing parrots are now being shown to the public with a warning
Last updated 15th Feb 2022
Lincolnshire wildlife park's famous swearing parrots have gone on display to the public.
They've been given their own enclosure along with other non swearing parrots to distract them.
There's also a warning about possible strong language.
Steve Nichols the Parks’ Chief Executive chuckled as he said, “We’ve put the relevant warnings in place and have even mixed them with a small group of other African greys who are good talkers, with a hope of distracting them, but we can’t be held responsible for what people may hear”
The parrots attracted worldwide fame throughout the height of the Covid pandemic in 2020.
Steve did more than 100 interviews in over 30 countries from all corners of the globe and just last week, some 18 months later, interest is still high as he did a fresh interview for the USA.
The five parrots arrived at the park in the same week, from different places around the UK and before the staff knew what had hit them they were being verbally abused by all five.
Steve commented “we have parrots arriving at the park all of the time, and the odd swearing parrot is nothing new but to have five throwing out blue language at the time same time, as they did was unbelievable”
The park removed the notorious parrots from public view for a number of weeks so as not to upset younger members of the family visitors.
But now they’re back on show and have hopefully learned a new vocabulary which will be more pleasing to the ears.
