5 Kea parrots killed by vehicles in New Zealand's Milford Road due to attraction to human food.

5 Kea parrots were killed by vehicles in New Zealand's Milford Road since April due to their attraction to human food, which disrupts their natural foraging behavior and puts them at risk.

Drivers are urged to slow down and avoid driving away if a kea is on their vehicle.
