I read a a supposedly true story about a pet store that had a burglary. The
store had a macaw of some type that was the store's pet. The macaw wasn't
caged and had free access to the whole place all the time. Seems that when
the burglars broke in, the store's security system went off. When the police
arrived, they found no burglars, but did find a very angry macaw stomping
up and down the store aisles CUSSING! The bird apparently made so much of
a ruckus the burglars were scared away before they could take anything.
So, you may be right! ;)
