Los Angeles firefighters mobilize to catch a valuable parrot that escaped from the Playboy Mansion

For decades, the Playboy Mansion in Los Angeles has been synonymous with glamor and sensuality, but in addition to luxurious parties with scantily clad girls, the former home of the late Hugh Hefner also housed exotic animal species.

A few days ago, one of them, specifically a valuable parrot, escaped from the mansion, forcing the Los Angeles Fire Department to mobilize to try to catch it.

As reported by the TMZ.com portal, the bird was able to escape thanks to a gust of wind. It was the members of a nearby golf club who notified the firefighters.

The police arrived at the golf club and found that the parrot had been placed in a tall tree, and they tried to bring the parrot down with water.

The problem is that the parrot not only did not go down, but it went up higher. It was time to close the golf club and the Los Angeles firefighters gave up their attempt to recover the bird.

The Playboy Mansion was sold in 2016 to millionaire Daren Metropoulos for $100 million, and is currently used to host social events, exhibitions, and film and television shoots.
