Can kakapos make human sounds?

Being parrots, can kakapos "speak" like humans, just like other parrots can?

I've been developing games about Kakapos for several years and today I could finally adopt one from the generated income :)

Whould Kakapo make good pets? Of course that whouldnt happen in a long long time due to their threathened status but lets say there were thousands. I hear Kakapo are really friendly and curios and them being unable to fly sounds like they whould make really good pets.

These Kākāpō desperately need to bolster their numbers. Clearly they need a wingman. 🏹 Steve, the feathery yet flightless cupid, is here to help. 🦜💕
