The undergrowth.
A forest is an area that is covered in trees. Depending on the main species, a dense forest inhibits undergrowth by shading the ground below. A beech forest is especially noted to prevent undergrowth developing as their falling leaves are very acidic. A falling tree in a forest creates an open space (forest glade) which will allow secondary growth to flourish.
On the forest floor. The densest area is the canopy, but i wouldn't consider it undergrowth.

The opposite of undergrowth is "overgrowth" -- in the rainforest this consists of a canopy of high branches and leaves that substantially overshadows the forest beneath.
They live on the forest floor in dense undergrowth.
Because the kiwis meet the requirements of the forest growth.

Yes. The kiwi is endemic to New Zealand. Its natural habitat is native forests but it is now found in kauri and coniferous forest where the undergrowth is dominated by tree ferns, as well as temperate rainforests. However, due to habitat clearing, the kiwi is now forced to survive in semi-wooded forest, scrubland and agricultural areas.
