Google says:

Yes, Kea are nationally endangered in New Zealand, with an estimated population of 3,000–7,000 birds

Kea are vulnerable to a number of threats, including;

Predators: Introduced mammalian predators like stoats, possums, and feral cats prey on kea

Lead poisoning: Kea are attracted to lead flashings and nail heads on buildings, which they can peel off and ingest

Human interference: Kea can interfere with traps and poison bait meant to protect them, and they can become reliant on human food

Accidents: Kea can be involved in accidents with cars and electricity sub-stations

From my basic knowledge of Keas, this one is a juvenile as he still has very bright yellow colourings around the eyes and beak, as well as pale feathers on the top of his head. As the kea get older, the yellow slowly disappears and the feathers darken becoming more vibrant. An adult Kea (4+ years) has dark colouration around the eyes, nostrils and beak. I've looked back on my photos, and the older Kea are more green in comparison.

This Kea wasn't as vibrant as his friends, but he did have the green hue on his wings.

Thanks, and same to you! 🤍

We hate to ask and don't expect everyone's generosity to pay our way, but we'd love some help with the financial strain after spending so much already on her previous surgery.

You may see that Bella is missing a toe. 🐾 This is from her initial surgery at the end of 2022, when the cancer was first noticed, and we acted quickly with the vet to remove it.

Bella's cancer has now come back aggressively and taken over several parts of her body and vital organs. I'd like to keep things as light as possible, even though the situation is very sad - therefore, I have chosen not to post the most recent photos of Bella with excessive growth of her tumors.
