You may not want to watch with sound, you can hear the birds sad tweets and the owner occasionally sniffling

Always hard to say goodbye. Birds are just such amazing creatures, that make a strong bond. Do text if you feel like talking. :)

Why is this being filmed?

To be shared, because it's informative? As morbid as it is, it's still a video proof that animals are capable of emotions and empathy.

Without an FMRI scan while happening, we don't know what areas of the bird's brain are active. Even if, we'd have to make assumptions.

Sad but beautiful. Still amazes me that some people believe that animals don't have emotions.

Animals have emotions that the only ones that really come close to us are elephants and dogs

I don't know about birds but for some animals you should let them see their dead friend to realize they're dead instead of waiting forever.

As long as you record it.

People record these things for all kinds of reasons, and it doesn't seem like the youtube video was posted by the original person 1/2

8 years ago | Likes 1 Dislikes 0

so it's perfectly possible that this was originally supposed to be a person/small group thing instead of the viral video it is now. 2/2

This isn't a new idea, death masks were a thing.

The fact that people record all kinds of things is shitty. There was one with a dog rescuing a cat in a river or something. Human watching.

If it is the one I am thinking about it was a cat rescuing a puppy.

It may have been a cat and a puppy. In retrospect it wasn't a river, maybe more like a cement-lined waterway?

This is a few years old. Where I work, I see them in their natural environment and they are naturally green.

8 years ago | Likes 6 Dislikes 0

But don't they come in an array of colors, not just green? They've always been stereotypically yellow to everyone here.

Like every other animal, breeding to gain various traits desired by humans. Green to blend in with the leaves of the trees.

In nature they are green. Other colours have come from humans breeding them.

OP probably won't be getting a new one because this gif is at least 1-2 years old and a repost. Still sound advice.
