Willie the Parrot

True Real life animal Heros

A 2-year-old named Hannah Kuusk would have choked to death if it weren’t for Willie, a Quaker parrot.

Megan Howard, the child’s babysitter and the bird’s owner, prepared a Pop-Tart for Hannah, placed it on the table to cool and then ran to use the bathroom.

While she was in the bathroom, Willie started screaming, flapping his wings, and saying things like, “Mama! Baby! Mama! Baby!” Howard ran out of the bathroom to find Hannah in the kitchen, holding the partly eaten Pop-Tart, gasping for air, her face and lips a terrifying shade of blue, and Willie still shrieking his refrain.

Howard performed the Heimlich maneuver to save the little girl, but she says Willie is the real hero. The bird was later presented with the local Red Cross chapter’s Animal Lifesaver Award.
