Why do pirates like parrots so much?
Parrots back in the days of pirates were an extremely rare bird and pet to own and pirates would often steal them to make themselves appear rich and modern! A modern pirate would never be seen without a parrot! Also, A captain would only say his words once and never again as a mark of rank so when he left, he would leave the parrot there to repeat his phrase! Most of all, it was because a parrot was an extremely rare bird and was deemed as being tropical meaning that people would think this pirate was amazing because he set sail for the farthest reaches of the planets!
