Kea are skittish around other creatures, so [[pasture]]d livestock are generally enough to send them winging away empty-clawed. Unfortunately, the livestock appear to be equally scared of the pilfering pests, so your dwarves will spend considerable time herding them back into their pastures when a kea flock appears. | Kea are skittish around other creatures, so [[pasture]]d livestock are generally enough to send them winging away empty-clawed.

They can and will draw [[blood]] on dwarves and small pets, like [[cat]]s. A newly-embarking group of dwarves will sometimes find their [[Wagon (embark)|wagon]] immediately beset by a flock of kea, their stuff stolen, and their days ruined. In this case, a good defensive measure is to move the contents of your wagon underground as quickly as possible, using temporary stockpiles in your fortress entrance if necessary. This will force the pests to stop flying if they want to come and steal something, making them no more or less threatening than other thieving beasts. |
