Alex the African Grey Parrot

AGP-Pascal.jpgIrene Pepperberg, an animal psychologist, bought Alex in 1977 from a pet shop in the Northwest Side. She began a 30-year study that would change our understanding of avian intelligence. Her research on Alex disproved the belief that birds could only mimic human language without understanding meaning.

What is Alex?

Alex (short form for Avian Learning experiment) was originally an african grey birds for sale buy african grey parrot that was purchased from a pet shop. However, over the course of his life, he led trails in animal psychology that were far beyond what was previously thought to be possible, and he proved that animals are as intelligent as dolphins or primates. Until his death in 2007, Alex was one of the most famous talking african grey parrot for sale birds around the world, appearing on TV programs and scientific reports.

In his entire life, Alex learned over 150 words and was able to recognize colors, shapes, materials, and quantities of objects. Alex also understood the meanings behind words, something that is not typical for birds. When he heard "grape" it was clear that it was not a vegetable but it was a fruit. Dr. Pepperberg taught Alex words in a way that helped him comprehend them. She along with a colleague would take on the role of teacher and student. Alex observed and listened. He was awarded for correct pronunciation and definition with the object associated with the word.

Another interesting aspect of the method she taught Alex was that she taught him the meaning behind words, not just the sounds. This was a revolutionary method, since pet parrots usually only learn words for their novelty. The owners don't care about what they say when they use a specific word. However in the case of Alex, when he said the word he was using, he was really meaning what he was saying.

Many people are enthralled by the fact that Alex was able to learn so many things, some scientists have argued that it was unfair to compare him to humans in terms of intelligence. They pointed out that while Alex could communicate, he was not capable of using logical phrases like "if there is x, then there is y."

Alex's research into animal intelligence and consciousness is controversial. Alex was among the world's most famous talkative parrots up until his death in 2007 at the age of 31.

What was Alex like?

Alex was an infamous member of a gang who was a fan of brutal acts. Despite his violent tendencies Alex was a likable character and seemed to enjoy the power he wielded over his fellow hoodlums. He was addicted to two things in his life which was violence and classical music, particularly Beethoven and his songs, which always brought images of blood and depravity to him. He also was known to drink milk spiked with drugs, which he and his gang members would then use to fortify themselves for their "ultraviolence."

Alex's background as a parrot at the pet shop was not remarkable however, it served him well. Alex was quick to master concepts and words from his human trainer, Irene Pepperberg. Her research over thirty years on him changed the theories of animal cognition, communication and interaction. She was credited by Alex for instructing her to use the rival model, which proved effective in other animals and children with learning disabilities.

After her research with him, Dr. Pepperberg went on to study other parrots like Wart and Griffin. She is a professor now at the University of Washington, where she continues her pioneering work with birds.

Alex is the tiniest of the group and is the most childlike. She's a bit of a tween and has been described by other members as being a bit ticklish. She is also the largest animal lover in the group. She is often the peacemaker between Clover and Sam when they get into meaningless squabbles (such as in "Abductions").

Alex has a strong sense of her own self-worth that she uses to manipulate other people. This has led her into many disputes with other members of the gang, including her long-time enemy Gigi Hollingsworth, who she blames for spilling juice on her blanket as in the midst of her childhood ("Mime World"). She also has an Emo/Goth personality and enjoys wearing black clothing and writing poems about love and loss ("Boy Bands Will Be Boy Bands"). The writers of the show have stated that Seth MacFarlane's song is her most favorite and that she has dated him.

What was Alex like in terms of intelligence?

He could also express emotions, such as when he was feeling unhappy or dissatisfied during training sessions. He would tell his trainers this by placing his chin on his cage, or saying loudly "I want a banana."

Alex's brain was so sophisticated that he was able to understand and even categorize objects according to their colors, shapes and materials. He was also able to discern a difference between a wood box and a plastic bag as well as count and compare the quantities of different items. He even grasped the concept of zero, which most people don't grasp until around four years old!

Alex's abilities were impressive because, unlike other parrots he understood what he said. Alex could utilize his more than 100-word vocabulary to describe ask and deny objects, as well as convey the sizes and types of materials. He was able comprehend the analogies and recognize written words however he was not able to connect them with their spoken forms.

Parrots are taught a lot of words however they don't know the significance behind the meaning behind them. Pepperberg and her assistants played out scenarios that included the object they wanted Alex to master. This method is known as the rival model, and has since evolved into an accepted method of teaching animals.

Alex was not just a dog with a high cognitive capacity but also a fun and affectionate dog who loved playing with his owners. He often acted as an advisor and cheerleader during training sessions, urging or encouraging them to do better. He was extremely observant and was able to discern the emotions of his human companions. He would often jump into his owner's arms when she was smiling and was a clinging to her leg when sad or upset.

What was Alex's influence?

The film has received lots of critical acclaim, and is considered one among the top documentaries of all time. It has also won numerous awards, including the Academy Award for Best Documentary Feature in 2019.

Alex Pepperberg was the first person to pioneer avian intelligence in addition to his work for Dr. Pepperberg. Alex was able to sing more than 100 vocal labels for objects and actions. He was also able to count up to six object sets and demonstrated math skills that were advanced in the time for birds.

He was also able to communicate with other animals by using a sign language, and he had a good grasp of grammar. He employed a method of training known as "rival model" which involved two trainers showing the bird what they wanted to teach it. The trainers often changed positions so that the bird could interact with both trainers and receive attention from both.
