The turbulent life of the Brazilian parrot Freddy Krueger
In southern Brazil there lives a parrot named after one of horror's scariest villains. And Freddy Krueger - the green Amazonian parrot that is - has seen just as much drama as his namesake. Ilair Dettoni is a vet who acts as Freddy's carer, and has stuck by Freddy since an injury in a shootout almost killed the parrot - and earned him his famous name. Ilair introduces Emily Webb to this remarkable bird.
