I guess the parrots weren't getting high enough under their own
power.

Nice pun, Jerry.
But... wait a minute - so, opium production isn't illegal in
India? Not quite, apparently:

And maybe this is where those junkie parrots come in: "The
essential condition for issue of licence is, fulfillment of
minimum qualifying yield (MQY) criterion, specified in number of
kilogrammes per hectare. Cultivators who have tendered at least
this quantity in the previous year are eligible for licence."
Honi soit qui mal y pense?
