Swearing parrot escapes the chop in Israel
This news is very interesting!!
A parrot having learned bad phrases was almost going to be killed by the owner. But, the owner’s wife helped it and it was sent to the zoo.
I personally would like to know the comments of the pet shop that sold the parrot to him and who taught the bad phrases to it.
I also would like to know how the parrot lives in the zoo. If I were in Tel Aviv, I might go and see the parrot shout “Son of a bitch”…

Swearing parrot escapes the chop in Israel
An Orthodox Jew was threatened with divorce after blowing several thousand dollars on a parrot that swore like a trooper, Israel's mass-circulation Yediot Aharonot said today.
After he brought his feathered friend home, the man's religious household in the Tel Aviv area was bombarded by insults such as "son of a bitch" and "homo" from the bird.
When its owner sought rabbinical advice, the rabbi recommended that the parrot be slaughtered - or have its tongue cut out for being foul-mouthed.
But the horrified pet owner's wife threatened divorce if the bird went for the chop, and the parrot finally found refuge in a zoo.
