>keas in NZ have been known to lock people inside huts
The stuff Keas get up to! One story of a kea pulling the nails out of a hut roof one by one and pausing between each one to look into the window and squawk in triumph. Another feller tells the time his party was cornered by a mob of adolescent male keas while they were trapped in a bivy. He half heartedly threw a rock at one that was trying to destroy his pack...the kea picked the rock up, flew into the air and dive bombed him, sconning him with the rock. I've seen a mob of them distract climbers (us) with a deliberate song and dance routine in one direction while a single commando bird snuck up from behind, ducking from rock to rock to rip packs open. Definitely intelligent and organised. Kind of funny the first time, but not the second!! |
