    Here in the uk there used to be a big chubby cat who would spend all day hunting and sunbathing on a meadow behind our house. And there were also a gang of magpies who loved to sneak up on the cat when it was focused on hunting or sleeping in the sun and peck the poor thing’s tale. The cat would get soo startled it would often leap a meter vertically into the air. The magpies didn’t get any food or anything out of it. They were just little goblins and enjoy tormenting this cat for the fun of it

      Ooh! Poor cat! My dad has a similar story: one time he was walking down the beach and saw a cat with one eye, trying to hunt pigeons. The little devils not only avoided the cat's attempts to hunt with ease, but also encouraged him to hunt them, so he would try to jump on them and they'd get away, like a prank

      They were likely avenging the murders of their families and friends by cats. If you knew how cats hunt, you'd feel a lot less sympathy for this one.

    • @Person01234

      I hope you understand that cat hunting doesn't just consist of the cat hugging things. Out of "being starled by a mild tail pull" and "being bitten to death by a cat", one of these things is far worse.
      And fYI just because they don't get food out of it in every case doesn't mean it isn't related. This is a common behaviour that DOES allow corvids to steal food from a predator. I think the the fact that they do it when no food is involved is practice, a kind of game, so that they keep sharp.

      Cockatoos are evil - they always travel in flocks (sometimes 100 of them) and like wolves, they gang up on their prey and mob attack (smaller birds, chickens, cats, dogs and even humans if in their way). They'll also gang up on hawks and other birds of prey if they sense a threat (and have the numbers to subdue them).

Had a boss once who actually got himself pretty well maimed by an angry umbrella cockatoo we had for boarding, left this big long scar down from his shoulder and across his chest.
      If cockatoos all just unanimously decided that they wanted to be pack hunters and take down large prey, I think humanity as a whole would be best off moving.

    I have three large cats and one Cockatoo. There is no doubt who's in charge. One cat was a kitten when I got her so she grew up with the bird and are essentially playmates, but, the bird makes the rules. The other two cats never saw a bird up close, but, learned quickly they were not the dominant animal in the house. It's not unusual to see all four on the cat tree just hanging out.

    This reminds me of several kinds of natural occurrences: 1) Squirrels will drive birds away from bird feeders to get the seeds.
    2) Wax moths and several kinds of beetles will intrude into bee nests to steal their products, sometimes using pheromones to drive them off if necessary. The same thing occurs with butterfly larvae and ants.
    3) Monkeys are known to regularly follow tropical birds and squirrels to special nut trees, then smacking them away to steal them.
    4) Birds have been found to occasionally infiltrate bird boxes to destroy any nests inside, driving the owners away and letting the new birds nest.
    5) Many large predators will fool or attack other predators to steal their kills, especially with bears and wolves or Hyenas and big cats.

      If you put the food on top of the shed for the parrots you won't have to worry about them bothering the kangaroos unless of course it has become a game. Cockatoos and parrots are very intelligent and very playful birds. If they were trying to hurt the kangaroos they would have already drawn blood. The pressure exerted by a parrot or cockatoo beak is enough to not only draw blood but to break bones.

    Another suggestion is to provide separate food for the birds and slowly move their feeding station further and further away from the kangaroos over many weeks or months. Try to separate the feeding stations by at least half kilometer at the maximum maybe?
    And feed the birds before the kangaroos so their appetite is low when the kangaroos get fed.
    And then, slowly lessen the amount of food given to the birds over many weeks.
    That and get some water in a spray bottle and squirt the birds every time they strike a kangaroo.

Also kangaroos are grazing animals so they eat all day and I would doubt they have 1 set feeding time that the owner could monitor constantly.

    I love kangaroos, I remember the times when I bottle-fed unforgettable joey K4 in Victoria, she was absolutely gorgeous and so sweet. Precious memories

    I can't even imagine living around a flock of cockatoos. They're sooo intelligent. It'd be wild

      My grandparents had some that would visit on their verandah. My grandparents would throw some seeds and nuts out every once in a while. One day my grandparents stopped. A couple days later 100 odd cockatoos raided the verandah and ate all the rubber sealings off the rails and windows. Cockatoos dont just rob, they also extort.
