By the way, the show that this was taken from is called Last Chance to See.

Very cool series.


The history is that naturalist/biologist Stephen Fry went around the world 20 years ago with Douglas Adams (author of Hitchhiker's Guide to the Galaxy), filming nearly extinct animals of the time.

Mark Cowardine, friend of the late Douglas Adams, has teamed back up with Stephen to go and do a follow-up to the original series, seeing how each of the previously near-extinct animals have done in the mean time.

maybe they're endangered because the male parrot rough sexes the females to death.

that little thing was brutal.

The expression on the parrot's face was priceless.
