Meet Hope: the world's luckiest parrot.
A hundred and ten hours after a deadly earthquake hit Turkey, rescuers plucked the grey parrot from the wreckage of a pet shop.
SOUNDBITE: Rescue worker Turgay Ulu saying (Turkish):
"We were combing through rubble, searching for survivors. Then we heard a sound. We ran towards there and began to dig. He was stuck in the cage. We moved the rubble and saved him from that crushed cage and placed him in a new cage."
He was called Hope, as his rescue lifted workers spirits and raised hopes of finding more survivors.
