THE KIWI
The Kiwi lives only in New Zealand. It is a very strange bird because it cannot fly. The kiwi is the same size as a chicken. It has no wings or tail. It does not have any feathers like other birds.
Kiwi are a significant national icon, equally cherished by all cultures in New Zealand. Kiwi are a symbol for the uniqueness of New Zealand wildlife and the value of our natural heritage. The bird itself is taonga (treasure) to Maori, who have strong cultural, spiritual and historic associations with kiwi. Its feathers are value in weaving kahukiwi (kiwi feather cloak) for people of high rank.
A kiwi likes a lot of trees around it. It sleeps during the day because the sunlight hurt its eyes. It can smell things with its nose. It is the only bird in the world that can smell things. The kiwi’s eggs are very big.
Due to the cultural significance to Maori and the traditional knowledge about the bird, tangata whenua are a key skate holder in kiwi management. For a number of local kiwi and hapu throughout New Zealand, this relationship between tangata whenua and kiwi has been formally recognized as part of their Treaty of Waitangi settlement claims, which encompass specific references to species recovery work. This includes the Ngai Tahu Claims Settlement Act 1998.
There are only a few kiwis in New Zealand now. There is a picture of a kiwi on New Zealand money. People from New Zealand are sometimes called kiwis.
