The Kiwi is New Zealand's national icon but, despite the fact that New Zealanders are known as 'Kiwis", most have never seen or heard the birds in their native habitat.
They are unusual by bird standards, being unable to fly and having hair-like feathers. They are mainly nocturnal, sniffing out food using nostrils located at the end of their long beaks. Their ground-based existence makes them vulnerable to predators and they are an endangered species.
The smaller males do most of the egg incubating but it is the larger female who has to lay an egg about one-third of its own size.
Kiwis live in pairs and mate for life, surviving up to 30 years in a predator-free environment.
