Yes, that’s right! The opium bird is a hoax. In 2023, a video of a bird that looked like it was smoking a pipe went viral on social media. The bird was dubbed the "Opium Bird" and many people believed that it was a real animal. However, it was later revealed that the video was actually a hoax. The bird in the video was a CGI creation and the pipe was added in post-production. The Opium Bird hoax is a reminder that not everything you see on social media is real. It is important to be critical of the information you consume and to do your own research before believing something. Further Internet surfing has found deep fake videos of this particular hoax featuring Joe Rogan’s podcast have only spread this hoax even further. Here are some tips for spotting fake news and hoaxes on social media:

- Be suspicious of headlines that seem too good to be true or that are designed to evoke an emotional response.
- Check the source of the information. Is it a reputable news organization or website?
- Do a reverse image search to see if the image has been used before.
- Look for red flags, such as grammatical errors, poor spelling, and strange formatting.
- If you're still unsure, ask a trusted friend or family member for their opinion.
