Poor bird! :( I'm glad they could help him, though.

Poor guy. Wonder if the prosthetic beak will work for catching fish?

Thanks for the link, Tim!
It's always heartwarming to read something like this. There have been quite a few cases where this has been done with parrots because part of a beak has been bitten off.

Great story, Tim! I did see a "Too" that had an artificial beak added...on Animal Planet. Amazing!
