Arthur
“Wart”
Rest in Peace
October 15th, 1998 to February 27th, 2013

Arthur, aka Wart, was the youngest bird at the lab. He loved to play with all of his toys and beg lunch off of the student workers. His favorite word was “tickle.”

Arthur passed away on February 27th, 2013 at the young age of 14. He died from Proventricular Dilatation Disease, complicated by kidney disease. To read more about Arthur’s illness, please go here.
