Amazon parrots are one of the most intelligent and sociable bird species in the world. They can imitate human speech and even emotional tones, which makes them very popular as pets. In the wild, Amazon parrots use a variety of sounds, whistles, and screams to communicate with each other. They are long-lived birds — in the right conditions they can live for over 50 years, and sometimes up to 70 years.
