I picked it up, taken it to DoC who in turn have taken it to a Kea hospital in Ch-ch where I hope its injuries are not life threatening.

At 23 years old, Jackson Print feels like his life is just beginning.
He's suffered from chronic kidney failure his entire life, and for the past three years the Ashburton man has spent nine hours every night hooked up to a dialysis machine.
Adventure racing can be a daunting challenge to take on for a novice, but 23 hopefuls are now a lot more confident thanks to Ashburton's EA Networks Centre.
Have you seen Atawhai? Beryl? Maybe Hopey or Windscreen? They all like mountains, flying and the colour green.
They're kea, they're endangered and they're all on the new online Kea Database.
