One of the hottest stars on YouTube has been a parrot named AJ. The very trainable bird can dunk a basketball, play gold, do some gymnastic routines, and even roll over and play dead (the canine unions may be contacting him on that last one). AJ doesn’t show any signs of slowing down, even though he’s now 18-years-old. His owner (personal trainer) Dave Cota, of Florida, encourages his pupil from the sidelines, and the parrot repeats the words of encouragement as he goes through his routines. So, while AJ is an Indian Ringneck Parakeet, that hasn’t seemed to held him back from getting any jobs lately. Now, if I could only get a custom-built golf course like AJ has (not to mention the pool table)…  Television wildlife expert Chris Packham explained ...: 'The Parrot's beak and claws, designed to grasp and break open fruit, gives it a dexterity not found in all birds.
'Bring that together with its ability to learn and mimic and you can see why these creatures are so endearing to humans and so popular as pets.'
