What is a kea?
A kea is a parrot native to the alpine and forested areas of the South Island of New Zealand. They're notorious for "attacking" parked cars and chewing up rubber like the windshield wipers and gaskets around the doors. They are also accused of killing sheep, but they may only be scavangers of sheep killed by other predators. The birds have the ability to kill other animals. Like most parrots, they are highly intelligent and have demonstrated the ability to solve logic puzzles and use teamwork to accomplish tasks.
Why are sheep dogs so important to Australia and New Zealand?
New Zealand is full of remarkably steep, rugged terrain which cannot be accessed by a horse-rider. Sheep dogs, acting under instructions from their masters and their own instincts, muster sheep, ensuring none stray from the edges, and this requires them to be able to run back and forth around the edges of the mob. Sheep can easily fall into mountain crevices, and the dogs are needed to both try and prevent this or to point out to a farmer when a sheep has gone down a hole. Sure-footedness in mountainous country is a necessity, and achieved only by nimble dogs with great endurance - far better than a man and a horse. In Australia, there is far less such rocky, rugged terrain, except in the High country. However, the vast size of paddocks on sheepstations and the need to herd the mobs of sheep tightly, mean that it is too difficult for men on horses to keep the sheep together. Again, sheep dogs in Australia are bred for endurance, and they work with sheep and cattle station owners to herd livestock, keeping the mobs together, and rounding up the sheep for shearing.

How long does it take a sheep to grow back its wool in minecraft?
I'm pretty sure it does. Well, acctually for me it does. If you want it to grow back, make sure you have plenty of grass for the sheep and feed at least 2 sheep wheat to mate and make a baby sheep, also, keep them happy by feeding them grass. To feed them, put grass down (Grass Block) and they eat it, it turns into dirt, replace it. Once you have done this, the sheep should grow back in somewhere around 5-10 minutes.

What is the expression of rode on sheep's back?
The expression is not actually "rode on the sheep's back" but "built on the sheep's back". Australia is often referred to as the country that was built on the sheep's back. That is because the wool industry is one of Australia's earliest industries, and the one that initially propelled Australia into success as a self-sufficient colony, able to trade with England in its own right. Australia's economic success and political development was "built on the sheep's back".
What do you cover the chimney with on parrot port?
You just jump on the chimney AFTER YOU ASK THE PARROT. Then, hop in the sea (not in your boat) and go back out. The parrot will be on the roof of another building. Then, you go to the far right, and talk to the parrot again. After that, you go to his owner who is at the top of the tower and use the cracker to guide the parrot back to his owner. If you have not found the cracker yet, it is in Petey's Pirate Pub. *Every time you log out of poptropica, It is like you never asked the parrot, so always ask again.
