Can Animals Talk?
In 1977, a young Harvard graduate named Irene Pepperberg brought a one-year-old African gray parrot into her lab, and attempted something very unusual At a time when her fellow scientists thought that animals could only communicate on a very basic level, Irene set out to discover what was on a creature’s mind by talking to it The bird, named Alex, proved to be a very good pupil
Scientists at the time believed that animals were incapable of any thought They believed that animals only reacted to things because they were programmed by nature to react that way, not because they had the ability to think or feel Any pet owner would probably disagree Pepperberg disagreed, too, and started her work with Alex to prove them wrong
(8)However, Pepperberg’s experiment did not fail In fact, over the next few years, Alex learned to imitate almost one hundred and fifty English words, and was even able to reason and use those words on a basic level to communicate For example, when Alex was shown an object and was asked about its shape, color, or material, he could label it correctly He could understand that a key was a key no matter what its size or color, and could figure out how the key was different from others
Pepperberg was careful not to exaggerate Alex’s success and abilities She did not claim that Alex could actually ‘use’ language Instead, she said that Alex had learned to use a two-way communications code Alex seemed to understand the turn-taking pattern of communication
Although African gray parrots usually live to an age of fifty or so, Alex died suddenly when he was just thirty years old However, in his short time on Earth, Alex helped to prove to many that animals are capable of far more complex communication than many scientists had ever expected
Alex’s last words to Pepperberg were, “You be good I love you.”
