The legend of new zealand / Kiwi
I just learned the kiwis have hebits and physical characteristics are so like a mammal the bird is sometimes referred to as an honorary mammal. and also
i learned that kiwi were new zealands birds and they also lay eggs. Kiwi are ratites. The closest relatives to kiwi today is the elephant bird from Madagascar. They are also related to emus and cassowaries of Australia, and the extinct moa of New Zealand. Once there were about 12 million kiwi, but because predators eat so many chicks, there are now fewer than 100,000.
Hey Lucy
ReplyDeleteMy name is Izzy and I am part of the Summer Learning Journey team. It’s cool to see that you have made a start on your blogging.
These are some very interesting facts about Kiwis that you have found. What kind of things do you think that we can do to stop predators eating all the kiwis?
Do you have any facts about New Zealand as a country that you think are cool and would like to share. I just found out that Gisborne is the first place in the world to see the sunrise each day. How cool is that!
Can’t wait to hear back from you.
Ngā mihi,
Izzy
Thank you for the cool facts about New Zealand and about kiwis.
