The worlds first avian politician, President Parrot, was arrested for indecent exposure yesterday after he attended a speech featherless.

Police issued a statement today confirming that while it's not usually possible to arrest the current standing president, they found his naked body so off-putting that they decided to make an exception.

"He looked like a cold ballsack." One officer remarked.

The president was soon let out of prison with a warning after his feathers spontaneously grew back. The president commented afterwards that he was bored of being naked and that he only did it as a joke.

    Birds grow feathers back, but baldness caused by obsessive plucking (usually an anxiety response iirc) will often damage follicles to the point where they don’t regrow. In this case it’s complete enough that the bird probably has a disease of some variety that makes feathers fall out.

        Birds are very emotionally complex, there can be a number of reasons for it. Finding a good home and a person or bitd they can bond with is important to their well-being and they can live long, happy lives. Birds with a disease like this just require care. Sometimes people put them in sweaters.
