An eight-year-old Moluccan cockatoo in the animal sanctuary in Indiana has learned to bad mouth people visiting her at the park. Peaches is one of the main attractions at the animal sanctuary but staffers said people have to watch their mouths, because the cockatoo has a habit of repeating words that she hears.

Pine Animal Park say she was a household pet before she was taken on,and she already picked up a vocabulary as colorful as her feathers.

According to Jessica Price, senior zookeeper at the sanctuary, 30 miles north of Fort Wayne, Peaches learned some bad words when a volunteer construction worker started to bad mouth the bird, and when a chimp threw dirt at her.

"She started laughing and carrying on," Price said. Peaches threw in some of her favorite words.

"Go away," "shut up," "shut your blankety-blank mouth," Price said. "She says a lot of very bad words."

"It is difficult to get birds to stop using words they have learned," she said.

"We obviously don't repeat them," Price said. "We don't encourage it."
