Kiwi infomation report

Paragraph 1:Physical appearance

Kiwis are the miniature size of a chicken. Emus and Ostriches are the only animals that look the most similar. They have a small thin fur coat which is colour light and dark coffee brownish. They have firm and strong legs which add up to a third of the human body weight.

Paragraph 2:habitat

Kiwis live in the native forests of NZ. Kiwis are dying a lot because they live in predator territory. Kiwis can also live in mountain slope areas. You can also find them in the Stewert islands. Kiwis can sometimes live in wetland areas and kiwis in a rare case you can find them in snowy areas.

Paragraph 3:life cycle

Over time kiwis adapted because there were no mammal predators. Kiwis eggs are huge and they also weigh up to 440 Grams. When kiwis hatch they have grey and silver fur and then they start to walk outside of their burrows. When Kiwis have partnerships they stay together for 20 years and then the female will lay an.

Kiwis live in the mountain so it is hard sometimes for them when they are trying to find food. They normally eat worms that grow up to 0.5 meters long. They can also eat berries, seeds, and leaves.

Stoats, ferrets, rats kill Kiwis and then carry them back to their holes, and then they feed their babies. When people are walking with their dogs in the mountains if dogs are not on leashes dogs will damage Kiwi’s eggs.

Kiwis are endangered because they are being killed too much and that means that only 5% of kiwis chicks hatch from eggs.
