>>1976618I'm going to New Zealand in October and I was really hoping to meet a kakapo, the world's only flightless parrot.
Because nz doesn't have any land predators, their natural defense mechanism is to stand completely still, so the maoris would find them and just pick them up and put them in a sack to cook. Now there's only about 170 left on protected islands.
But they're beautiful cuddle monsters I love them!
