Friends! Thanks for watching! We can’t get enough of those colorful parrots, you too? Then follow this link to our parrot playlist for more ;) ruclips.net/p/PLZ3CjNbCdQe9bPn3PB9BYxCxIz5OFmlFD
keas are such beautiful, inquisitive, and sometimes naughty animals, one time while tramping in the bush with my family a kea even stole a biscuit from my sister
Hi @SonLucasX! Yeah they are great birds! But it is probably better to try and help them in their own habitat, than to export them somewhere else 😉 But yes, they would probably do alright once they learned to avoid predators.

I'm thinking the reason the crow didn't reach into the box to grab the treat was because it realised it's collar wouldn't fit through the door, quite clever.
Ive never heard of this bird, they seem very interesting. This channel always seems to find the not so talked about animals and put the spot light on them, thats what i love about this channel. Keep up the good work.
Sigh... Farmers and their sheep. Nearly always ending up in conflict with the local wildlife and nearly wiping them out as a result. But it's fun to see how curious the Kea are and how clever they are.
Also sheep were why most farmers in Europe were pushed out of their land by wealthy land-owners in the past. Sheep farming requires less workers than crop farming.
Some german Cities have striving Colonies of Keas. Düsseldorf for Example. At the Kö, the Luxury Brrand shopping Streit. Always a Delight to see them pick apart the windshield wipers of Bugattis and Lamborghinis. 🥰🥰🥰
Hi @CordeliaWagner1999! Are you sure those are Kea? I know of other parrots (we made a video about them) but i didn't know that there are wild kea in Germany.
@@danielhay3385 update: I found wild keas on Arthur’s pass national park. One of them landed on my car and started chewing the wiper😂 Thanks a lot it was a good experience.
Parrots (order Psittaciformes) are split into eight extant families under three superfamilies, the three superfamilies of parrots are Strigopoidea (New Zealand Parrots), Cacatuoidea (Cockatoos), and Psittacoidea (True Parrots), the new zealand parrots (superfamily Strigopoidea) are split into the families Nestoridae (Kakas and Kea) and Strigopidae (Kakapo and Kakarikis), the cockatoos (superfamily Cacatuoidea) are split into the families Nymphicidae (Cockatiel and Fossil Relatives) and Cacatuidae (True Cockatoos), and the true parrots (superfamily Psittacoidea) are split into the families Pezoporidae (Typical Oceanian Parrots), Psittaculidae (Asiatic Parrots), Psittacidae (African Parrots), and Aridae (New World Parrots), the kea (Nesopsittacus notabilis) is for example part of the Nestoridae family within the superfamily Strigopoidea, parrots originated exclusively from Oceania, which is why the new zealand parrots (superfamily Strigopoidea) are the most basal of the three parrot superfamilies, why the cockatoos (superfamily Cacatuoidea) are more primarily found in Oceania, and why the family Pezoporidae that contains a majority of parrot species native to Oceania is the most basal of the four extant families of true parrots (superfamily Psittacoidea).
The reason why theyre so mischievous is because theyre intelligent enough to just have fun.. They make snowballs and roll them to each other, they harras tourists with their passports & GoPros haha! Theyre almost more like primates than birds.. Theyve even been filmed on camera dragging road cones onto the middle of the road as cars approch in the distance, then moving to the side of the road & watching (& laughing) as cars have to awkardly drive around it.. Tests have proven that they have the problem solving intelligence of an 8yo human child!
So basically they weren't native to the Southern Elps but dispersed across both NZ islands? How are they able to adapt to the weather conditions over there so quicky?
Hi @icon2719! They could be found over pretty much the whole island (prefer forests for nesting), also in the mountains but not as much. But because of humans (settlements, bounty, invasive predators,....) they where forced to retreat there and are now mainly found in the Alps
Hi @krista2216! Yes they turn the rocks upside down to look for food. Insects are quite resilient and some can survive in this high altitude. Especially in New Zealand there are some really cool arthropods that freeze over and thaw on a regular basis, and survive that.
Hi @synaxarion! Good question. But since they are smart and learn fast they would probably do okay ... well only if they also adapt to the dangerous predators.
Hi @alveolate! Yes. They could be found all over the island. But because of human interference (hunting, settlement, invasive predators,..) their numbers dwindled and the ones remaining are the birds found in the alps and its surrounding mountain forests (mainly for breeding).

Really enjoyed it. Divergent paths of evolution and their outcome. Cheers 👍💪✌
Hi @rjung_ch!
That is great to hear! Thanks for watching!
You made a mistake: terrrestrial mammals did occur in New Zealand. See ST Bathans mammal
Absolutely incredible how similarly intelligent both birds are! Honestly that's primate-level smart.
That is absolutely right! They also recognise themselves in the mirror, which is a big indicator for intelligence and self-awareness.
such a cute and funny birds looks extra adorable when they are playing and also smart too!
Hi @jyrodummy-oi9bn!
Yeah they really adorable.
keas are such beautiful, inquisitive, and sometimes naughty animals, one time while tramping in the bush with my family a kea even stole a biscuit from my sister
Hi @MichaelKontze!
That sounds like a fun encounter. I hope it wasn't the last biscuit.
this is one of my favorite parrots. They are very unique, what could be a good way to protect and conserve this species

Oh nice! A new parrot story!
Hope you enjoyed it!
Kea, Kea!😍
I never knew this! Incredible!
VERY interesting video. Thank you!
Hi @mphillips4324!
Thank you for watching and enjoying it! 😊
Wow, i never imagined that! Today i learned something new :D
Hey @elisamf!
That is great! Glad we could help ;)
I'm thinking the reason the crow didn't reach into the box to grab the treat was because it realised it's collar wouldn't fit through the door, quite clever.
Well she is certainly clever so maybe you are right 😄
Yeah , same thoughts
Hey terra I'm new subscriber ur videos are too informative and awesome ❤
Hi @abhishekgond5503!
Welcome to our channel! It is great to hear that you like our content 😊😊
watched one of these lads strip the rubber seal off of a classic Porsche once, it was beautiful, owner had plenty of fun to come back to
Hi @mirtha1908!
Yeah they love to destroy cars 😅
Ive never heard of this bird, they seem very interesting. This channel always seems to find the not so talked about animals and put the spot light on them, thats what i love about this channel. Keep up the good work.
Hi @stevebennett9839!
Great that you like the video and even better that you now know the Kea. They are amazing birds!
Great documentary!
Hi @kittenlang8641!
Thanks! Great to hear that!
So sad how they were persecuted. Thankfully they survived, unlike America's Carolina parakeet .. what an unbelievable loss.
Hi @carpy1252!
Yes it is sad!
I love cool parrot videos! 😍
Hi @KatrinHemmer!
Well who would not enjoy those 😄
Awesome video 🙌👍🙂🍀🙏👌
Thanks for watching it!
such an incredible species.
Hi @tosjreang!
They really are!
Excellent video 😊
We're happy to hear that! Thanks for watching! :)

Wow I’m just traveling the South Island of New Zealand. I hope I can find a wild Kea🤞
Hi @tt-yd6xs!
Oh that's pretty cool! You should be able to see some if you travel a bit into the mountains.
Best place to find them is Arthur's Pass! It's very famous for its Kea population who like hanging around (and stealing from) tourists
@@danielhay3385 update: I found wild keas on Arthur’s pass national park. One of them landed on my car and started chewing the wiper😂

@@tt-yd6xs Yeah that is the classic Arthurs Pass experience! Glad you enjoyed it, and hope you have a great trip!
Kea 😂 name from his sound was funny
Right?! :D
I feel like they failed to mention how uniquely carnivorous keas are
I mean they did say that they killed sheep to the point farmers decided to exterminate them from the north island. So I think that fits the bill.
@@Skyypixelgamer I suppose so
@@Skyypixelgameryeah but when they mentioned that I definitely wanted to hear more 😂

Hi @indyreno2933!
Thanks for the deep dive into parrot phylogeny.
Amazing information Thankyou, 👏
Thank you very much for the details 😊
Striking divergencies. And parenthetically, birds are revealed to have incredibly thin necks when one puts a collar around it, squashing the feathers!
Hi @TheyCallMeNewb!
Those are striking divergencies indeed!

Hey @carlosguimaraes624!
They really are cool aren't they^^
they have a "start dumbassery" call lmao
Why are the keas rolling over rocks? Will they find insects under them? Isn't that too high, and therefore cold?
Hi @krista2216!
Yes they turn the rocks upside down to look for food. Insects are quite resilient and some can survive in this high altitude. Especially in New Zealand there are some really cool arthropods that freeze over and thaw on a regular basis, and survive that.
The crow had the neck band perhaps that why it hesitate to poke its head into the box ?
Hi @Little-bird-told-me!
That could have certainly played a role. But corvids tend to be more careful when interacting with strange new objects.
@@terramater Hey thanks for doing a great job. I love your channel. More power to you

Oh thank you! Its always great to hear that someone likes what we do hear 😊
The logo in the middle of the video is annoying
Cry about it
@@jojak8066 I just did
Positive criticism is good. A presenter should be glad to receive it at all times. The comment about the logo was not intended to harm at all.
I wonder if they would do well in North America?
Hi @synaxarion!
Good question. But since they are smart and learn fast they would probably do okay ... well only if they also adapt to the dangerous predators.
Raza khan veri nice veri baste
They look like kakapo
Well the kakapo is also a parrot only found on New Zealand and they are closely related
the sheep eater
Hi @runkorko!
They do. But most of them only if they find a carcass somewhere. The attacking is a rarity.
wait, didn't you say earlier that they were forced into the mountains by humans?
Hi @alveolate!
Yes. They could be found all over the island. But because of human interference (hunting, settlement, invasive predators,..) their numbers dwindled and the ones remaining are the birds found in the alps and its surrounding mountain forests (mainly for breeding).
My next tattoo will be a kea - my spirit animal
Hi @RobEngland!
Good choice!
I hope this bird is reintroduced to its former native habitats.
