Colombia
Colombian authorities seized almost 1700 parrots trained as lookouts by drug traffickers by 2010.
No credible evidence was found supporting the claim that by 2010 Colombian authorities had seized almost 1700 parrots trained as police lookouts for drug traffickers. The web evidence primarily discusses incidents involving parrots used by drug traffickers, but these are related to different locations and instances, not specific to Colombia or the given numbers. Thus, the claim lacks substantiation and appears to be an exaggeration without a solid factual basis.
