Possibly the smartest bird in the world is the African Grey Parrot. While many parrots can mimic human speech, African Greys can learn what the words mean. A woman named Aimee Morgana has an African Grey Parrot named N'kisi that speaks in sentences and knows around a thousand words. These birds' potential for language may be due to their behavior of feeding on the ground cooperatively in the wild of Central Africa. African Greys make incredibly cool but high-maintenance pets. They bond only with one person and require several hours outside the cage each day.
