Thats really funny seeker. I wish i could have been there to see it. Where are you from. The only place i know where parrots would live is the tropics.

As for the sivit big ben, it didnt eat the fruit. It was sniffing it and playing with it as it rolled around on its back. And fermenting doesnt necassarily mean alcohol. It may have just been a fancy way of saying really ripe. Maybe I wasnt clear in my post. What im trying to say is that its a weird phenomenon that animals get so crazy off the smell of something. Like a cat and catnip. I believe nature is designed to take care of itself. So why the catnip? Why give animals a way to get "high"? Its pretty fascinating and im wondering if there are other instances of this in other animals. Oh yeah, you got the drunken parrots and their crazy flowers. I just had a thought. This could be a good argument for the legalization of marijuana. Anyway, does anyone know of any other animals that get high off the scent of something.
