Sometimes, especially when they aren’t listening, kids can be a handful. It’s common for teens to throw temper tantrums when they don’t get their way. But this temper is unlike anything you’ve seen before. That’s because it’s not a child; instead, it’s a Cockatoo!
Pebble the Cockatoo doesn’t want to go back to his cage, because he prefers to explore. This hilarious video captures Pebble’s playful yet mischievous side, as she throws a tantrum when told ‘no.’

He talks to his father endlessly, repeatedly telling him to come over. Some of what he says is inaudible, but some curse words are different.
At 2:43 in the video, Pebble’s father asks if he has an attitude; in accordance with his request, Pebble replied “Yes, that’s right!” It is clear that this feisty bird will not wear his feelings and does not take orders from anyone willingly.

Sadly, Pebble has been home for the past 20 years, but she is finally with a loving family who cares deeply for her. He can be moody at times, but he’s a great bird!

Cockatoos are part of the Parrot family and they share a talent for mimicking sounds, including speech. Some Parrots, such as the African Gray Parrot perfectly imitate human speech, but Cockatoos are not so good at it. They can mimic words and sounds but their accuracy is so limited that it can be difficult to understand what Pebble is saying at times.
