About

Party Parrot is an emote used on the messaging and collaboration application Slack, featuring a multi-colored, animated depiction of Sirocco the kakapo parrot who was famously filmed mating with zoologist Mark Carwardine's head during an episode of the BBC nature documentary series Last Chance to See.

Within eight years, the video gained over 7.2 million views and 4,100 comments.
