Both unsanitary and cruel whoever brought that bird in. And whoever took the picture should be flogged, for taking a picture instead of intervening.

Best Use of Technology — In Jack And Jill a cockatoo named Poopsie finds himself in a chocolate fountain, sipping a Jack Daniels and flying against a gale-force wind. Now if co-stars Adam Sandler and Robert DeNiro want a glass of whiskey or take a swim in chocolate that's up to them, but green screens, computer-generated imaging and a fake bird filled in for the real Poopsie in those situations. American Humane Association can safely say that Poopsie was the most entertaining bird of 2011.

So glad it's fake!

It did cross my mind since the bird looks to be in a similar posture in the chocolate drenched pics. It all makes sense now, I am so glad to read this, thank you.

Once I saw "Pets for Sale" ad in a newspaper for a cacapoo, which I hope was just a cocker-poodle mix.
