Parrots, Dinosaurs and Other Animals Who Mimicked People

These animals learned to mimic humans. In 2017, a parrot’s cry for help to a UPS man that sounded like a human in distress prompted police to respond.

In 2019, an intelligent seal was trained to hum “Twinkle, Twinkle, Little Star.” Inside Edition Digital’s Andrea Swindall has more.
