Video Description:
Did I ever mention I want to get into nature documentaries? The Kea is one of NZ's million or so flightless birds. These ones tried to make a fool of me every time I mentioned they were flightless.

How could something that small eat a sheep? Well, I guess that's pretty ignorant of me... I know from first hand experience how strong a parrot's bite can be. I didn't know they were flightless... they must swarm a sheep like a crowd of hungry zombies or something.

Mm...I imagine it has been mentioned, but the other large flightless parrot you mentioned is the kakapo (up to 4kg!).
Kea are little ... ( 7 months ago by MattyJamesM)
Kea are little scumbags. They have to be some of the most vicious birds in existence. They are well-known for tearing apart parked cars (ripping off the rubber parts and sometimes even breaking glass). They attack sheep and night, bite as much flesh off it's back as they can and then if the sheep dies of blood loss or infection they come back and eat the rest.
Yeah, we got ... ( 7 months ago by AngryAussie)
Yeah, we got several warnings about them wrecking cars.

howdy, they are pretty cool birds really. people who hate them are just ignorant or inbred. they go for the fat around the kidneys in the sheep,bright bird for working that out, and it used to happen years ago, not so much now.
the most intellegent bird in the world.

Yeah, there were lots of warnings about them.

They aren't vandals. They are just curious so they check everything around them. Remember that people were the one who came to their environment on first place not the other way around. They just try to adapt to it.
