Keas

Kea (Nestor notabilis)

Did you know…? That this species was subjected to long persecutions which caused a notable loss of specimens.

This peculiar species, which lives in the mountains of new zealand, closely resembles the primitive parrots. they are lively and playful, so it is very entertaining to watch them during their games and especially when they are seen moving small stones to the lake with the help of branches, as if they were playing golf.

The long persecution to which this species was subjected, caused a notable loss of specimens, and thanks to the fact that the keas are protected, the population has stabilized. in loro parque this species is bred in a stable way every season.
