That we're better than 'Muricans.

Admittedly, that's an incredibly low bar...

Fair, but the kiwis have keas, so they beat us both

If it wasn't for us pesky humans....we would also have the Haast Eagle...which were up to 3 times heaver than the Wedge Tail Eagle; similar wingspan though.

I'm a Kiwi

Kea are fucking awesome!

Destructive little fuckers, but they're so amazingly intelligent

I unfortunately have to go to the US quite frequently

Trust me, as dumb as Australians can be at times, there's absolutely no comparison

America is a cruel place, and the worst thing is that the cruelty is celebrated
