Victoria and Dalton Mason have a 4-year-old gray African parrot named Apollo, who is a social media phenomenon with nearly four million fans and a Guinness World Record for his ability to identify and call out the names of objects without hesitation. Apollo won his Guinness record for identifying 12 objects in three minutes. The Masons say their mission is “to spread awareness of the natural intelligence found in animals.” They hope that their title can change the meaning behind the phrase “bird brain.”
