Best Answer

Kiwi are small Flightless Birds.

  • They can hunt for food using their long, sensitive bill which is equipped, unusually, with nostrils at the very end.
  • They can dig burrows for nesting, using their strong, sharp claws. They can hide from predators during the day as they are nocturnal.
  • Females can lay eggs which are about 6 times the size of an egg from another bird of similar size and which, just prior to being laid, make up 15-20% of the kiwi's body weight, taking up so much room that the female is unable to eat because there is no room in her stomach.
