“David Attenborough narrates a documentary about the kea, the world's only alpine parrot. Playful and destructive, it attacks cars, starts landslides and terrorises New Zealand ski resorts but behind the bad behaviour there's a sharp mind at work.” library.digiguide.com; 21/02/2006

Shows keas solving problems in controlled environments and explains the intelligence of the bird as a key to its survival.
