# behav: the sophisticated dance of the sulphur-crested cockatoo (Cacatua galerita eleonora)

<< Spontaneous movement to music occurs in every human culture and is a foundation of dance. This response to music is absent in most species (including monkeys), yet it occurs in parrots, perhaps because they (like humans, and unlike monkeys) are vocal learners whose brains contain strong auditory–motor connections, conferring sophisticated audiomotor processing abilities. >>

AA << report that a sulphur-crested cockatoo (Cacatua galerita eleonora) responds to music with remarkably diverse spontaneous movements employing a variety of body parts, and suggest why parrots share this response with humans.  >>
