How about some fun macaw trivia?

Apparently, The Gorilla Foundation (where Koko the gorilla lived) fostered a green-winged macaw. Koko was scared of the macaw, and named him "Devil Tooth", probably for the bird's red plumage and white beak that looked like a tooth.

I learned this on the wikipedia page on Koko.
