    Before you go off looking for your copper...which will get harder to buy in NZ, now that the UK has decided to only sell game shot with non lead.
    Have a read of this.

    On a side note,
    "Because Kea evolved in the absence of mammalian predators, they have not developed defences to them, and nowhere is this more conspicuous than when it comes to nesting. Unlike most parrots, which nest in cavities high up in trees, Kea nest in burrows, tucked under rocks or amongst tree roots, which makes the incubating female, her eggs and chicks especially vulnerable to predation by introduced stoats. When stoat populations periodically explode, they decimate Kea nests, reducing survival to near zero. Other predators, particularly possums, introduced rats and free-roaming cats, add yet more casualties."

    NZ dose not have California condor.
    It's all fun and games till Darthvader comes along
    I respect your beliefs but don't impose them on me.
